Bones, in your example it would seem you're giving him the opportunity to make a correct fold, no? He gets to choose whether he wants to continue. You're just shoving it in blind.

Yeah...it's a sit n go. You should be doing exactly this about 200x/day.

But.. you're letting him play well. He folds when he and calls when he should. Why is this a good thing for us?

I guess you could change the example so that he is getting odds to draw to 6 outs, but you're probably getting called (correctly) then.

At this point, the odds don't matter. He can play perfectly but you still gain. Given the situation I posted, ANY course of action you can take to increase the chances of you winning the hand by even a few % is definitely worth it.
