Default Re: HOH2 on continuation size bets: don\'t agree they should be half po

Also when you have a made hand it's often best to bet more than 50% of the pot. For this reason, I often bet 60-75% of the pot regardless of whether I hit or missed and thus no one can know what I have by my bet size.

Well if you can't lead the flop SOME TIME with a 50% bet when you have a hand, then you better just stick to making those 60-75% bets with air as well, and just burning those extra chips.

Are you insane? Once again answer my question, why not bet 40% instead of 50%. I'm sure you have some well thought out answer why betting 30-49% of the pot is wrong, but that betting 60-70% is clearly wrong also, and that somehow 50% is some magic number that fulfills all of your purposes in all situations.

Yes of course the flop texture matters and on some textures I will bet 50% of the pot or even less, and on some textures I will bet more. However to make a general statement that its almost always correct to bet precisely 50% of the pot is really ridiculous.

Are you insane?

Yes, clearly I am.

For continuing any dialogue with you. I will rectify that now.
