reasoning behind the bet
But what do you people think about the reasoning that in big pots i should bet to push weak draws out, whether i have a made hand or a draw. Hence i thought about betting the flop. Even if i donīt make the draw but make a pair, my chances to win with that pair improve by every player that folds. -SSHE. In this case, a guy drawing weak to a superior hand.
Checking costed me the whole pot. A bet wouldīve cost me 5 cents.
The pot is big, so just 1 bet isnīt that likely to drive people out. But it might drive some really weak draws out. Like in this case - the guy who had 86s. Ideal would be a check raise.
If im willing to call 1 bet, why not bet myself and try to drive those previously mentioned players out.
