Default Re: Hypothetical Situation

You are about a 3-1 favorite at that point. Therefore, you want to bet enough so that he is not getting proper pot odds on a call. So if the pot was $100 at that point, you should bet $50 plus whatever you think you can "sell" him for or whatever you think he will call. If you bet $60, he would be getting about 2.7-1 on his call, which would make it incorrect for him to call. So without a doubt, you want him to call. Obviously you would then fold to an A or K on the turn.
