Default Re: continuation bets losing money, how do I adjust?

[ QUOTE ]
Options:

1. Stop doing them. (not a bad option) &
2. Raise so you get 3-4 callers, that way you're always drawing with odds and don't need to continuation bet.

3. Don't continuation bet heads up, do it into 2-4 players. Amazingly, this works even better than heads up if you bet large enough.

4. Make it larger.

5. Don't do it every time you raise, it's too predictable.

Some good points, thanks for the ideas.

Do you think you could elaborate on point #2? I don't quite understand.

I like point #3, they are a lot less likely to call you with trash hands like bottom pair if its 3-4 way and you pot it. Then again, its more likely someone hit a big hand like a set etc. But now that I thinka bout it when its multi-way my continuation bets seem to work pretty decently.
