Better than 1 in 11? I'm fairly sure it isn't.

That's the wrong question to ask. Rather, you're asking the right question when the only move to consider is calling a raise or not calling one.

But we are comparing the strategy of check/calling to the strategy of bet/calling a raise. And when we compute the EV of bet/calling a raise, one of the terms will be:

-(size of pot)*(chance of bluff raise).

The chance could be only 1 in 20, and yet that term would still be significant.

No, we know that. We were talking about a different issue though.

I must say, Piz0wner3d!!! is really doing a good job of making his case. Especially against the likes of JBB, and to a lesser extent, Tosh.

You're right, and thats what I was referring to. I was comparing bet folding to bet calling.

Thanks for the contribution, and while I appreciate your weak and childish digs at me. I know you don't like me and I don't care but I would appreciate if you could keep with an 'I ignore you, you ignore me' approach.
