Default Re: Value Betting

I am ok with the first hand.

Hand two is a value bet for sure and hand 3 is a little stranger but I think it is ok.

Hand-reading is important in these situations IMO. If you look at hand two, most hands that he plays this way are worse than yours.

With a value bet you are looking to be called by a hand worse than yours in order for it to be profitable. This doesn't necessarily mean that it always has to be worse than yours.
