Re: How do YOU use the auto check, raise, check/fold, check/call butt
I use them almost all the time. I play between 1 and 3 tables.
Maybe some opponents think they have a read on me, especially when I'm in late position and I do a "speed bet" (i.e. one that could only have been done by clicking an advance action button). But if I plan on betting first-in on any card, I'll click the (bet .5) as early as possible no matter whether I have the nuts or a value-bet to my drawing hand or something else.
Almost all my pre-flop actions are with the advance action buttons as well.
I think sometimes players think I'm bluffing when it's heads-up and I do an "insta-raise." I know that there are some players who hold the nuts and play WPT and ponder a long decision. Some guy pulled that on me with top set the other day. IMHO, It is a rare case indeed where the time an opponent takes to bet is a reliable tell. When in doubt, go for the Caro angle that acting weak means strong and acting strong means weak.
