    3-bet is a second raise preflop, or the third bet after the flop

    IE: SB/BB post 50/100 respectively, folds to cutoff who raises to 275, button 3-BETS to 850

    or

    3-players to the flop, EP bets 100, MP raises to 400, button 3-BET shoves for 1500

    4-bet is one more bet than a 3-bet

    I'm guessing W$SD = W%SD??

    winning percentage at showdown

    The blind is a forced bet, so the BB is the first bet. When you open raise you are putting in a second bet and when you open raise and someone reraises you they are 3betting you by putting in the 3rd bet. If you shoved you would then be 4betting.

    I used to think a 3-bet was a 3x raise,

    i.e. sum1 raised to 600 (@100/200) then someone re-raises to 1800.

    ooops lol
