That line looks good to me. Let me ask you this - how do you think that this might have been a mistake?

Sheesh, no read on the opponent? Just kiddin.

actually i probably shouldnt have posted this hand its probably straightforward. I had a down session and im worried that the extra tables will mess me up. I could have bet less on the turn though right?

15 on the turn will accomplish the same thing as your awkward bet (17.35?). Otherwise it looks good. Nice check behind on the river.

[/ QUOTE ]Why not bet the pot on the flop?

[DMACM]

I almost always bet in the vicinity of 2/3 the pot on the flop. The reason for this is I find a full pot is mostly called by hands that have you beat and people pay you off if you bet less. I try not to change the amt. based on whether I am bluffing or what my hand is. Is it more customary to vary bets?

Did I say something to prompt this response?

Regardless, I think betting consistently is good regardless of hand strength, but you can vary it up to trick your opponents as well.
