Default Re: Thinking ahead with continuation bets

If you're going to make a continuation bet, 250 is about as high as you can go without being obliged to call an all-in.

The other option is checking behind. They would probably be expecting you to make a bet here, so their checks don't necessarily mean anything. Checking it back could throw them off-balance. You're really not worried about giving a free card here. A bet on the turn would probably be respected a lot more than a bet on the flop, and if one of them moves in on the turn, your hand is easy to get away from if it missed you.
