Question
In a six-max game online, it’s folded to you in middle position and you raise to $7. It's then folded to the big blind, who makes the call. The big blind is your average TAG, not good and not bad. The flop comes 10
6
J
. Your opponent checks and you c-bet $12. He flats and the turn comes A
. He checks again.
What should you do?
Correct Answer: Bet
This flop misses your hand but hits your perceived range. It’s a perfect spot for a second barrel. Your opponent likely called with a hand like T-9 or some kind of weak one-pair hand. He’ll likely fold to the second barrel. Too many TAGs just fire one barrel and are done with the hand. Don't let this be you. Look for good opportunities to double-barrel.
