Default Re: 10/20. Overbet bluff in barrels in a paired board.

[ QUOTE ]
Why go out of your way to underbet the turn so you can overbet the river when you could just bet more on the turn and have the river bet be pot-sized or close to it?

The thought process is that it wouldn't add a lot of fold equity on the turn to bet slightly more. However a slight overbet on the river looks scary (wouldnt a bluff be half the pot?), and figures to fold anything but a king or better.
