Now, the question arises: How should you adjust your strategy when this opponent decides to open the pot with a raise?
  • 3-bet light less frequently
  • Call with more low-pocket pairs
  • Slow-play strong hands
  • 3-bet light more frequently

Hello and thank you for these quizzes.

Now that these questions have become more complicated. I was wondering if you could explain the answers and why they are correct?

At this level, the answers by themselves. Don’t help people understand how and why they are correct.

Your consideration of this would be greatly appreciated.

Correct Answers:

  1. 3-bet light less frequently - In live games, casual players frequently make the error of limping with their weaker hands and only raising with their stronger hands.

  2. Open a tighter range for a larger sizing - When facing opponents who limp into the pot, it is advisable to adjust your bet sizing by approximately 1 big blind and narrow down your range for raising. A useful guideline is to consider raising from one to two positions tighter for each limper. This strategic approach can help you capitalize on the weaknesses of passive players and maximize your chances of winning the hand.
