Strategy: Poker (Cont.)

 · Check-Raise (Call)

     

More of a call-raise, you see the original bet and call in the hopes that a third player will re-raise. When he does, you also see that bet, and then raise a third time. This causes players to see three individual bets.

When the smoke clears, there will be far less players in the pot. Like any check-raise, note that if nobody raises after you, your plan has failed and you just lost out on a bet that you were willing to make.
