Bet the flop, turn and block the river.

sorry, could you explain 'blocking'?

[/ QUOTE ]

a bet that you make in hopes that it won't be raised and so that you decide the price of the showdown. Usually 1/2-2/3 pot size. You make a blocking bet when you don't know if your hand is good, but want to show down. If a blocking bet is raised, you fold.
