32 WGM #62 2018/09 wgm8.com 游戏 PLAY 在 WGM 2018 年4 月号中，我们深入探讨了扑克中 第三次下注的艺术——什么时候做，为什么做， 以及在每一位对手身上应该找寻哪些特点，用来 制定一个合理的第三次下注起手牌范围。 第三次下注，尤其是占据有利位置时，不仅是牌桌上 一个极其重要的将盈利最大化的技巧，还是可以用来迫使 对手犯错的最有效的工具之一…更不用说那种看着对手抓 狂时的快感了！ 可如果位置互换呢？尽管通过适时的攻击不断迫使对 手弃牌的感觉很令人满足，但如果你是那个一次又一次被 第三次下注的人，就不那么好玩了。 做第三次下注时实施一个精心策划的计划会令你更难 对付。同样，面对对手的第三次下注时，你也可以去做一 些重要调整，将对手的攻击性为己所用。策略得当的话， 或许可以阻止他们对你加注！ 我们从基础谈起。如果你翻牌前开叫，然后当按钮位 置玩家第三次下注时，你总是被迫弃牌，那么这说明你 选择的起手牌不够强大。因此第一步就是收紧你的开叫范 围。举个例子，面对某些玩家，你也许总是用同花A7 这样 的牌在cut-off（按钮右边的位置）加注，但如果面对一个 喜欢在按钮位置第三次下注的玩家，弃掉A7或许才是明智 之选，而不是朝底池里扔死钱。有太多经验不足的玩家自 动设定了他们在某些位置上用来加注的起手牌范围，而正 确做法应该是，根据左边位置玩家的特点，来调整那些范 围。 面对一个咄咄逼人的第三次下注者，通过将这些可玩 可不玩的边缘牌从开叫范围中去除，我们就加固了自己真 正选择去玩的起手牌的强度，减少了任人摆布的机会。 I n our April 2018 issue of WGM , we took an in-depth look at the art of 3-betting in poker – when to do it, why to do it and what traits you should be looking for in each opponent in order to determine an appropriate 3-betting range. 3-betting, particularly in position, is not only an extremely important skill to hone at the poker table in order to maximize your profits, it’s also one of the most effective tools you can use to force mistakes from your opponents … not to mention the somewhat sadistic pleasure to be gained from watching them go mad with frustration! But what about when the shoe is on the other foot? As satisfying as it can be to constantly force folds from your opponents through well-timed aggression, it’s not quite as much fun when you’re the one being 3-bet time and time again. But just as implementing a well thought-out plan when 3-betting will make you much more difficult to play against, there are a number of key adjustments you can make when facing a 3-bet to take advantage of an opponent’s aggression. Get it right and you might even stop them raising you! Let’s start with the basics. Invariably if you are opening the pot pre-flop then being forced to fold when the button 3-bets, the hands you are choosing to play aren’t strong enough to continue with so it makes sense that step one is to narrow your opening range. For example, against certain players you might always raise with a hand like A7 suited in the cut-off but if you’re facing a player who loves to 3-bet on the button it might be wise to fold that A7 rather than throw dead money into the pot. Too many inexperienced players set themselves a default range of hands they will raise with in certain positions when they should instead be adjusting those ranges based on the tendencies of the players to their left. By cutting these marginal hands out of our opening range against an aggressive 3-bettor we are therefore strengthening the range of hands we do choose to play and eliminating opportunities to be pushed around. “But wait,” I hear you say. “If our opponent’s aggression has forced us to change our game and start folding hands
