Default Re: This was a Clarkmeister, was it?

Am I the only one here who has heard of clarkmeister's theorem? I guess so

Well applied

For those of you who are unfamiliar with it. clarkmeister's theorem is a situational theorem where there is 4 of a suit on the board, you are HU and, OOP.

What clarkeister suggests is, despite the fact is -EV any way you play it, betting out is less -EV then just check-calling because you have some fold equity.

Once again, nice hand

i've heard of the Theorem, but i thought you had to have some sort of hand to make this play? i didn't know it was to be applied to a pure bluff. and wouldn't a read be necessary whether he'd fold or not?

playing last night, i saw a number of players fold for a single bet, so maybe it would work enough times to be +EV. my luck they always call [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
