. You check and your opponent bets $8.
What should you do?
Correct Answer: Raise
This is a good spot for a check-raise, especially when you're playing Rush Poker. This opponent knows nothing about you and generally you can get away with a lot more because they don't know how you play. So check-raise this continuation bet; worst-case scenario you have a gutshot and a backdoor flush draw to fall back on if called.
