Default Re: Why bet the pot?

So, I think there are two type of players who call pot size bets (in HU conditions) on drawing hands. Bad ones and good ones. I think a good player is more likely to make this call only if he has postion on the the post flop bettor.

1. Stack sizes matter.
2. You have the preflop round to help determine a likely holding for the villian.
3. You have a read built up from previous hands as to whether this is a good or bad player.

I agree completely.

But sometimes you don't have any reads on the villian, and It can be a difficult turn decision.
