Re: How Much Do You Bet to Balance Implied & Pot Odds?

The maximum he will incorrectly call.

This is intuitively correct, but how much is 'incorrect'? For example, if we were to bet 1/3 pot on the flop, the opponent is getting 1:4. He would be incorrect to call this by virtue of expressed pot odds. But if we were planning to bet 1/3 pot again on a non-[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] turn, then he would be correct to call the flop bet based on implied pot odds. We bet 3 on the flop, he calls. On the turn the pot is (9.5+3+3) 15.5. Non-heart turn falls. We bet 5, he calls. River is (15.5+10) 25.5. Heart comes on river. The opponent has paid in a total of 8 to win 25.5, which is a little better than 1:3 implied odds. Since he was a 1:2.5 dog to make his flush in 2 cards, he's a long-term winner calling these bets.
Isn't he? So betting 1/3 pot on both flop & turn can't be right?
So I guess my question is, how much would he be incorrect to call based on implied odds?
