Leak #1 Overcards.

[rvg72]

Great thread - I'm very guilty of this exact thing myself... Bet the flop with overs (which I think is reasonable as it will likely buy you a free card) then I bet the turn (which is bad) because I figure they might have wanted to see a single card and then I bet the river thinking that is the only way I'll win...

I'm going to see if I can write a query against the Poker Tracker DB that will give me some proof so I can stop doing this or at least modify my approach...

I'll be looking for scenarios where I was the aggressor pre-flop and had two over cards after the flop but with no flush draw or open-ended straight draw and play was checked to me. I'm not sure how big that sample will be but from there I'll try to do some analysis based on # of opponents and position. Not an exact science by any means but hopefully some type of conclusion can be drawn from the data.
