Re: A hypothetical situation
I'm not sure I agree. The ability to make a raise the size of the pot is occasionally useful when you have the edge but your opponent has enough pot odds to call a limit bet. But that doesn't happen in most hands and the loss to your opponent from having to fold isn't huge.
Obviously with two evenly matched players, even a slight edge could make the difference. But I would rather have a $600 stake and the limit than a $400 stake and pot-limit; that's only a 10% edge, not my idea of huge.
