Default Re: Using information to determine when to pay off

[ QUOTE ]
CPK: by not justifying their optimistic calls we mean dont pay them off when they hit. Its great that they call 2:1 on a 4:1 draw, but you dont want to give them enough money on the turn to have made it okay for them to draw.

for example, villian has a FD on the turn, assuming that we can see each others hole cards. we bet out 1/2 the pot, giving them 3:1 to call. They gladly call, and the flush comes. now, if you put anymore money in the pot youll be making it correct for villian to have called getting only 3:1. but if you muck, then villian was wrong to call in the first place.
