Default Re: bet initiating principle

Buzz

Thanks for going to such lengths to put together a clear example. I do now understand it, however it does lead to some counter-intuitive examples. Let me expand on one:

You are first to speak headsup on the turn. You have exactly a pot sized bet left, as does your foe. If you bet, you know 100% your opponent will call. If you check, you know 100% your foe will also bet and you will call. So in the latter case you will be getting 2 to 1 for your money. But in the former you are not???

cheers

Dave
