In fact, thinking about it, I think his reasons can be boiled down to two scenarios. Reasons 1 and 2 apply to good, made hands -- you want to get money in there if you likely have the best hand without much draw, and also want to force draws to make a mistake by calling.

Just thought I'd address this statement. This really isn't that correct. There are very few situations in the hold em games that you will find online where a player is making a mistake by calling with a flush draw or OESD.

Very nice post, except for your premise. He said "draw", you said "flush draw or OESD". There are many kinds of draws, and many of them should not be continued. Occasionally, flush draws should not even be continued, but there are much weaker draws than that.
