Author: Poker On The Mind Podcast March 8, 2021 Duration: 35:33
After catching up on their latest activities, Gareth talked about how he is having a difficult time staying motivated to exercise during lockdown. The hosts discussed a variety of ways to tie your goals back to your overall vision so that you can maintain motivation. Then, they answered Craig’s question about c-betting an ace high board with 3rd pair in a blind versus blind situation where he was the in position raiser.

Topics covered include:

● The factors you should take into consideration before c-betting
● How to determine the bet sizing you should use if you want to increase your c-betting frequency
● Why c-betting ace high boards in a blind versus blind situation is good as the IP raiser
● How range advantage should play into all of your decision making and thought processes
