Default Re: Continuation Bet in NL

What sort of texture says "make a continuation bet"?

[/ QUOTE ]I don't know, that's why I asked. You never want to do the same thing all the time. Also, if you come in with a raise and get one caller and you miss with a flop that is 2-7-4 or you miss with a flop that is T-Q-Q, those are very different textures and maybe you treat them differently.

Reading this post I must say that I really disagree with the advice given here. A continuation bet heads-up is almost mandatory; unless you are completely random about how you make your continuation bets, or are playing very LAGgy, the amount should be the same relative to the pot every time. A half-pot bet is usually too weak... as mentioned above, 2/3-3/4ths is the standard. I personally lean towards 3/4ths.
