A continuation bet—also known as a c-bet—is a bet made by the player who made the last aggressive action on the previous street. This process starts with a player making the final raise preflop and then firing the first bet on the flop.
What is a good c-bet?
What is a good CBet percentage? Well, I would say that versus a single opponent at the lower stakes a good CBet percentage is around 70%. But in higher stakes games, this percentage should be quite a bit lower. Versus multiple opponents you should tone it down no matter what stakes you are playing.
Should you always c bet in poker?
I would recommend making your flop CBet size about 60% of the pot in most small stakes cash games. In poker tournaments you should size down a little bit here. And in 3-bet pots, whether you are playing cash games or tournaments, your CBet sizing should always be 50% at the very most.
What’s the best way to play continuation bets?
The great thing about continuation bet bluffs is that you would play your strong hands the same way. Your opponents are left guessing and will often just take the safe route and fold. You can therefore attack a lot of pots with continuation bets when you are the aggressor – just don’t try attacking them all.
Which is a good flop for a continuation bet?
As you can see, a flop that doesn’t help a lot of hands is a good flop for a continuation bet. These flops don’t offer many draws and there aren’t many strong made hands. On a good flop you can represent a strong hand, and your opponent will rarely be able to call, even when he is certain you are bluffing.
