Default Re: I folded TPTK for more one bet in a big pot on the river

[ QUOTE ]
you can safely fold to a raise on this board, so by bet/folding you gain 1-2 bets when ahead and lose 1 when behind. if you check/call you might not get any bets when you have the best hand, and still lose the same one bet when you're beaten.

It's not all ONLY about gaining more bets when I'm ahead and losing less when I'm behind. It's about the chance of getting pushed off the best hand and losing a huge pot. The bet/fold line is a good line, but dangerous when misapplied. I'm willing to sacrifice a little river value once in a while in order to not cost myself the pot.
