Default Re: Barry Greenstein on probe betting Live at the Bike

To illiget: Probe bets are not continutaion bets.

A probe bet usually comes from someone out of position who was not the PFR.

I agree with Barry and I usually raise any probe bet if I was the PFR and have position on the hand, regardless of what I have.

Once you raise the probe bet, they have to be very big to stay in the hand.

This is why its also usually a good idea to lead out when you hit a set when you are out of position and were not the PFR, especially against a strong player, as the PFR is more likely to raise than fold to your bet.
