How should I interpret this?

Hi,

I have a question of how I should interpret a slide from W34z3l's video about countering flop cbets in position where it says:

Call most draws (occasionally raise). (Call if villain barrels, float bet at any given opportunity. If float turn, barrel river.)

Do I understand it correctly, that the last bit "If float turn, barrel river" can only mean this line:

F: Villain cbets, Hero calls/floats
T: Villain cbets, Hero calls/floats
R: Villain checks, Hero barrels

Because if villain doesn't cbet flop, we would float bet. And if villain calls and leads the turn we would probably not try to barrel/bluff again on the river, do we?

With your draws so ye i think it means float draws raise occasionally on the flop and attack checks on turns aggressively and follow them up by barrelling rivers unimproved without showdown value

I guess so. I am very nit-picky with stuff like this though. "If float turn, barrel river" is not the same as "If float bet turn, barrel river".
Sometimes the smallest details make a huge difference. Don't wanna trap myself.

Well ye you need to be the one taking the aggressive action on the turn ie float bet vs checks to be able to barrel the river if you haven't taken the aggressive action on the previous street your not barrelling

Ok then it should say:

If float bet turn, barrel river

Thanks!

A float is when you call a bet, guessing that your villain will give up on the next street and check so that you may bet. This is for IP play, if not you would be probe betting.

Yes, and a a Float Bet is an IP bet when the pre-flop raiser checks instead of making a cbet.

Correct, my suggestion to you would be if they bet flop, then check turn and you bet they call, if they check river bet again. At least 1/2 pot ..... both streets, I suggest a little more on river
