Re: Experiment with raised pots

This concept of obligated to bet the flop if you are pfr will get you in to trouble far more than my checking the flop will. The deeper you are, the more trouble you get in to with this concept because you are building a pot with a hand that oftentimes you don't want to play for your whole stack.

Sorry, didn't mean to hurt your feelers..
I do think you are flat wrong about the continuation bet.
It's like everything other concept, you have to apply it correctly. For instance if you make a couple of small continuation bets when you have hit your hand strongly, I assure you, the astute player will think 2x b4 snapping your bet off again. I also think the info you get is far more valuable than the chips you save by just checking.
Is it better to check and call a pot sized bet, and be forced to go into the turn still wondering where you are? I think it just makes your decision harder on the turn.
