Default Re: lots of 30/60 hands

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you plan on bet/calling the river in hand 1, isn't it better to just 3-bet the turn?

Not necessarily. Sometimes it can be better to stop'n'go in order to avoid putting in more bets than you want to... Here, hero knows this line will assure a showdown for no more than 4 and no fewer than 3 bb...

That's not to say that the concept is correctly applied in this specific hand, but there are times when stopping and going can be better for "bet control" reasons.

This makes sense, except he puts in 5BB anyway.
