Poker Term

小盲转牌彩虹面加注后弃牌(SB Turn Raise-Fold Rainbow)

The action pattern of the small blind player who raises first and then folds on the turn with a rainbow board.

Term Analysis

SB Turn Raise-Fold Rainbow describes a specific poker scenario: a player in the Small Blind position, facing a rainbow board (all flop and turn cards of different suits) on the turn, chooses to raise, then folds when facing a re-raise or strong counter from an opponent.

Impact of Rainbow Board

  • A rainbow board eliminates the possibility of a flush draw, so a raise usually represents a made hand or a strengthened draw (e.g., open-ended straight draw).
  • Since flush draws are absent, aggressive actions tend to lean toward value betting or semi-bluffing.

Small Blind Characteristics

  • The Small Blind has put in half a big blind preflop and has a positional disadvantage postflop (acting first on each street).
  • On the turn, the Small Blind is more inclined to raise with strong hands or strong draws to gain information or take down the pot.

Logic of Raise-Fold

  • This line is often part of a mixed strategy: raising with a small fraction of marginal hands or draws to probe the opponent’s reaction.
  • If a re-raise comes from a better-positioned opponent (e.g., Big Blind or Button), it indicates the opponent likely holds a very strong hand or has hit a draw, making a fold advisable to avoid further loss.

Typical Scenario Example

  • Flop: A♠ 9♥ 5♦, Turn: 8♣ (rainbow). Small Blind holds 7♦ 6♦ (open-ended straight draw), raises. If the Big Blind shoves or re-raises, the Small Blind usually folds.

Notes

  • Overusing this pattern may make you exploitable, especially against aggressive players.
  • Adjust frequency based on your own image and opponent tendencies.
