CB's

I was wondering what your thoughts on continuation bets were, it seems that my many times I get called on a lot of flops when holding AQ or A10 on a K J type of board, this is by far one of my biggest leaks and i don't know what adjustments i need to make, against an aggressive opponent you never know if your A high is good cause if you check he bets but if you bet and he calls do you follow up on the turn betting the pot since he didn't raise you or what. this mainly applies to HU or 3 way action

I usually check the turn if he called a CB. I used to bet it quite often but lately I get called with all sorts of things.

2 ways to attack this guy if you're out of position...

1st, if he raises your continuation bet and you've got nothing, let it go, the first time. Second time, check the flop and bet the turn. (I often do this anyway.)

If you're out of position, that's a bit trickier. Stop and go's are great for this guy. Also, reraise him all in. I love this play because it gets a lot of his chips and puts the brakes on him, big time. If you're behind, you still have two cards to come. I really like to do this with a good drawing hand.

The best way to deal with a real aggro guy is to trap him. You should know well in advance of HU or even 4-way how ALL of your opponents play, so a raise of your CB should come as no surprise this late.
