Re: merits and faults of the blocking bet
[ QUOTE ]
i think it really depends on the opponent. against passive, calling station-esque opponents, a blocking bet should be used more, in more situations. these are the kind of opponents that like to get to showdowns, and like to get there cheap. when i have a hand, i dont want to see it get checked behind by a passive player on the river, when i could definitely squeeze in another bet.

What you are saying is not a blocking bet, it's a value bet.
