    Default discussion: the overbet AI

    I just read this thread

    http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...game-40871.htm

    and I was wondering


    what do you guys think of the overbet AI, I don't think it should be used too much at the lower stakes and is a move for a deeper level of thinking alot of times with opponents that you have history with


    so When? How? and Why do you(if you do) use this play

    i overbet all in whenever I make the nuts in an unxpected and invisible way, like when I hit a weird gutshot draw or something.

    Also as a bluff when I am almost sure they will fold.

    I'd probably use it much more on lower than higher stakes. Most of the time I will overbet....
    1. With a vunerable board where the turn card could seriously damage getting any value from opp. Such as having AA with a J85 board. I raised preflop, BB calls. BB bets flop, I overbet all in.

    2. The pot is so small that the chance of him even making one call in 10 with an overbet is good enough.

    3. I have a strong draw and would like to induce an opponent to fold in a scary board.
    4. I am sure opp has a strong hand but that I have a stronger hand. Here any overbet would be a value bet.

    Shouldnt we also worry about the type of hands our opponent has and the frequency he will call our push?

    yes of course

    but that has to factor in when ever you make a value bet, so I figured it was already implied

    Downswinging holla!
    I disagree, this play works much better at lower stakes because the players down there are easily minipulated and don't adjust well.

    why i meant i didn't think it was good at lower stakes is because you usually have less then 50 hands with alot of opponents

    when i did this at 100 it seemed to get called a lot. now at 400 its not nearly as much, but you still get calls. of course i bluff the same way too.
