Re: leading into the raiser...
[ QUOTE ]
It seems like if you only bet your monster hands (top two, sets, big draws etc...) your giving away too much information or is that bad thinking?? Whenever I do this it seems like the opp. never folds and always puts me to a decision.

that's good thinking in theory, but i've been ignoring it more and more lately. you're not going to play anyone enough times for them to get a beat on when you do and don't lead into the raiser, and most people aren't paying that much attention anyway.
i'd say to try to look at your own image. if you look like you splash around and bluff a lot, then villain probably won't fold to your bet, especially if it's a rag board where he at least has overs. if your image is more tight/normal, it might be better to c/r to at least get one bet. but i wouldn't put too much concern into varying your bet for such a specific situation. (but always c/r'ing good hands and betting bad ones in any situation is too readable).
