Should I ALWAYS cbet OOP or should I consider checking more? Is it ok to give up on hands entirely sometimes ?

Just to expand a little, the reason why is that any good player will begin floating a ton and you're just going to lose your cbet most of the time whether they have a hand or not.

Another reason is that some board textures just hit your opponents range so hard that it is a waste of chips to get your opponent out of the pot.

I am gonna state the obvious and tell you to post some hand histories where you were not sure about cbetting OOP. That way you will get way more useful advice and active discussions ;-).

Yes, by adjusting. If OP is cbetting 100% OOP I don't think he's going to be identifying who's floating him a lot and thus c/rai a lot of turns/call down light etc. And one of the best adjustments is cbetting less anyway.

1.) No.

2.) More than what? If more than never, then yes.

3.) Yes.

All depends on the details of the hand.
