heros reasons for not c-betting could be anything, mostly because he is OOP, he doesnt want the pot to snowball out of control, and because villain has a tendency to bluff at weakness

These reasons only make sense if you have a reasonable hand which you want to showdown. Therefore this poll is rather pointless. The decision was made on the flop, not the river.

alright, i called w/77 and got a lot of flak for it at the table, and from someone who was watching me. he showed 98o. is this considered something i want to go to showdown with? maybe the flop was the key point, is bet still preferable over check there?

Re: opinion time -- how weak will you call
 

I either bet the flop, or just check it down all the way.

As played calling with 77 vs this guy seems pretty reasonable.

Right or wrong, I have no problem with these calls, I think they make you a lot better.

I am interested to see what MSNL says about this, but sometimes when I have a weak hand on a drawing board but I still feel I am ahead on the flop, I overbet the pot a bit...maybe 120%. This makes it very easy to get villian to define his hand early. Any flush draw will fold and most people won't have the balls to bluff me. It saves money since I don't have to mess around later at a higher price to see if I'm ahead. If I get caught it gives more weight when I overbet my nuts.
thoughts?

Looks like I'm not missing out on much having -Skeme- on ignore.

Re: opinion time -- how weak will you call
 

Well, you do get to alert others about how you have me on ignore, so that's pretty sweet, right?
