    Default c-betting the flop oop?

    Do you guys c-bet flops when someone with position on you has called your raise regularly? I am wondering if that play would be profitable against an opponenet with no reads.

    I'm a beginner, so I won't comment, but I normally try to see how strong my hand is and if I think it will win.

    What do you mean with 'no reads'?

    A read on opponent means you know if they are loose/tight/aggressive/passive/calling station/etc. To OP...unless villain is a calling station no one can fault you for cbetting in a HU pot. If there are multiple opps that have position on you then you should be cbetting far less often.
    Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject. So you know you are getting the best possible information.

    Generally, it's not a good idea to c-bet into calling stations. Check-raising them once in a while is a lot more fun.

    only cbet calling stations on good cbet boards like K74 and Q52. Otherwise just check.

    The general advice for bluffing is not to bluff when people would expect you to. In position it's fine b/c you can scare the hell outta em. But OOP- i dunno, usually people will just call, and ur faced with decision of checking (ceding the pot) or firing second barrel (which still might be called with nothing). It's not a good place to be.
