Probe Bet
试探性下注
A probe bet is made by the out-of-position player when their opponent checks to them on a street. Probing is used to extract value from weak ranges or test whether the in-position player has a hand worth continuing with.
Example
The big blind probes on the turn after the preflop raiser checks on the flop.
