Default Re: Blind Defense - Strategy Question

So to sum up - as a general rule - if you re-raise pre-flop, then you should lead out the betting - if you call, then you would check-raise or check-fold - of course, with variations on your play as always.

Is that what I am reading?

Sounds about right to me, with a c/r after 3-betting sometimes too.

Are you saying that in a situation where you 3 bet out of the big blind pre-flop, you would check raise on the flop?

I would think that in most cases, if you 3 bet out of the BB and then check the flop, most people are going to be expecting a bet from you - so if you check and someone bets, I am thinking that you are probably up against a pretty strong hand.

The downside to this is that if it is checked around, you have no choice but to bet on the turn, and you will probably lose any and all action.

I'd say that's a pretty risky play.
