Short handed strategy -- downsizing the bets?
I have been thinking a lot about short-handed play recently. I am pretty convinced that the "default" flop bet in a 3-4 handed game should be no more than 50-60% of the size of the pot, whereas in a full ring game, it should be closer to 75-80%. I obviously am aware that there are a multitude of exceptions, but my general theory is that I should be betting a smaller percentage of the pot as the number of players decreases.
I haven't seen anyone raise this issue, and I am wondering if others agree, and if so, why? I play mostly 5-10 and 10-20 if anyone thinks that the answer depends on the size of the game. FWIW, I'll post my thoughts later.

u should be mixing it up in relation to which player is in the pot with you.
