re: playing perfect poker.

Is this a true statement?

If you have the nuts after the river with one other in the hand, and you don't double up or put him out, there is no way to tell if you played the hand perfect.

Because on the river when you bet, you need to bet something you think he'll call, and if you don't don't go all in or put him all in, you'll never know if you bet the perfect amount. Is this being to results orientated, and when you talk about playing perfect poker is this being too specific? Just thought I'd throw this out there. I think this is a very interesting topic. I try to take the Fossilman approach and try to make the best decision whenever I have to make one, and a big part of this is the size of the bet. Thanks for the good discussion on this.
