What Is a 3-Bet in Poker? A 3-bet is the third bet in a poker sequence, in which a player re-raises after the initial pre-flop raise, or 2-bet. (The blind payment is the first bet in Texas Hold'em and Omaha.)

For example, suppose another player raises preflop, leaving you with the option to call, fold, or re-raise. If you choose to re-raise, that action is known as a 3-bet, and you are the 3-bettor in the hand.

Last, but not least, you can cheat a slot machine by making light. Most slot machines in land-based casinos still use a sensor to determine how many coins or bills are being inserted. By interrupting these sensors with a pocket laser light you can make the machine think you're inserting coins or bills while you aren't.

The truth is that there is no trick to slot machines. They provide random results based on set mechanics and it all comes down to luck. With that being said, not all games are the same, so picking the right options is key, and you can still change the size of the bet throughout the session for better results.
