for those of you who play on sites like Full Tilt which gives users the option to bet the pot by way of a button, do you take those pot sized bets less seriously than if someone were to make a pot sized bet by manually typing it in, or doing it in a B&M tourney? i've been having trouble reading these bets from largely unknown players lately, as these pot sized bets have become much more common in SNGs and MTTs.

people that use this button are bad players, thats pretty much the only read I get off them.

If ther eis anyone left to act behind them I usually take it seriously, but if its from the button its a tough call.

I hate that button. Crappy players on other sites will bet the minimum into a huge pot all the time without it letting me draw super-cheaply. But on sites with the "bet the pot" button, they love to press it and kill my odds.
