4 bet poker refers to the fourth betting round in poker games, typically occurring pre-flop. This aggressive strategy involves re-raising after an initial raise and a re-raise, putting maximum pressure on opponents.
In modern poker, 4 betting has become an essential part of tournament and cash game strategies. Players use 4 bets both for value with strong hands and as bluffs with speculative holdings.
The key to successful 4 betting lies in understanding opponent tendencies, stack sizes, and table position. Proper 4 bet sizing usually ranges between 2.2x to 2.5x the 3 bet amount.
Common 4 bet ranges include premium pairs (AA, KK, QQ), strong ace combinations (AK, AQ), and occasional bluff hands that block opponent\“s continuing range. |
