C/r\'ing flops w/ A high no draw in blind defense
i dont understand this, but i see good players do it so i must be missing something
how (or in what situations) is this better than just calling down? sometimes posters will say they're going to call preflop with A8 or whatever and c/r any flop - how is that better than 3 betting preflop? |

[/ QUOTE ] A preflop 3-bet (for most of us) narrows the range a lot more than a call does. The flop texture affects how seriously you take a preflop 3-bet followed by flop continuation bet by a lot. The call and then c/r the flop gives you more fold equity more often. |

Why would you ever play a hand just one way? A lot of times A-high is best, so get some value or something. I don't do this a lot though.

There is no easy answer for these things. It comes through playing hundreds's of thousands of hands. And is very dependendent upon opponents.
