Re: People calling a big bet instead of a small bet?
I don't like calling a small bet when I think I'm beat, but usually pot odds dictate that I will. I am more likely to call a big bet on the flop than after that b/c it usually suggests a made hand that's afraid of draws (i.e., a hand without redraws). Depending on the player, I may be able to steal the hand if a scare card hits.
I've found that betting patterns are fairly reliable regarding whether or not a big bet means weakness.
