Raise the flop or raise the turn to find out where you are and take a free card/showdown.

People in big buyin tournaments make a lot more laydowns than normally.

If villian is on air (i.e. overs), don't we want to give him a chance to bluff at the pot? He is already giving himself bad odds to continue the hand so we don't need to raise if we think he will keep firing. This is WA/WB IMO.

In tournament settings, odds don't matter nearly as much because when you lose a huge chunk of chips, your ability to regain them lessens. If you have a million chips in front of you, you can play speculative hands. If you have 100 chips in front of you, it's allin or fold.

Raise the flop to find out where you are and/or get out hands that you're vulnerable to. If he raises you, you're out. If he folds, you just picked up a nice pot.
