That is a Turn Donk from Y.

You cannot make a float bet out of position, only a donk or a probe.


What about Y and X both ch turn and Y bets river? What's that called? Is that a river probe?

Correct.

Is there a existing stat for the same scenario I described EXCEPT, btn checks flop, UTG checks turn and then BTN bets? Or by that time has the preflop raiser given up initiative and so that is just a regular turn bet?


I would just point out that this is generally referred to as a delayed cbet.


Only if BTN was the PFR. In my example, UTG raised pre and both players checked the flop.
I was building off of a previous post of mine.

So for example:

Player X raises preflop on the button, Player Y calls in the BB. Y checks, X checks. Y bets the turn. That's a probe bet because on the street before (the flop) X could have continuation bet (by virtue of the PFR) but did not do so.


So why in the stats I have something like Flop probe bet ?
Is it a mistake ?
I understand turn or river probe bet but on flop ?
Isn't it just donk bet?

We don't have a Probe Flop stat. That would be a Donk Flop.
