Default Re: Theory of Poker

I haven't read the post you are referring to, but it seems like he is talking about pot odds and the dollar that Sklansky discusses in TOP. You want a caller in this situation because your opponent generally does not have the odds to call a bet here. Since he is making a mistake in playing the hand, you will be gaining money over the long run, even if you are occassionally sucked out on.
