Betting
Double Barrel
A double barrel (or double-barrel) is when a player c-bets the flop and then bets again on the turn. This play represents continued strength and puts significant pressure on opponents who called the flop with marginal hands. Double barreling is most effective on turn cards that improve your perceived range or worsen your opponent's calling range.
Example
You c-bet on a K♠ 7♦ 2♣ flop, and when the turn brings the Q♠ (improving your perceived range), you double barrel.
