thoughts on overbetting

[srm80]

i have been playing at .10/.25 NL for awhile, and I have noticed that people chase a lot, and don't really consider pot size or whether they will get paid off if they make their hand, they just keep calling and calling and calling until they hit and then come in with a raise. Some players, alot of players, won't even bet when they do make the hand they were chasing, but are rather content with calling a 1/4 pot sized bet and taking it down. After watching this for awhile, would it be correct to make over bets that are bigger than the current pot size to give people pretty terible odds to hit their hand? If you have a good read on somebody and are fairly certain what they are drawing to, and know FOR SURE thaty they will call whatever sized bet just to hit their draw, would it be more profitable at the .10/.25 level to make over bets when you are certain the other player has a draw and will call the big bet?
