Re: continuation bets
Loads of stuff should influence your decision to continuation bet including stack sizes, likelihood of getting played back against, how active you have been, how badly you missed the flop, how good/perceptive your opponent is, flop texture etc
If you continuation bet 100% of flops you are very exploitable and it is a definite leak....
People will start to float or raise your flop bets and take the pot away on later streets...
Sometimes it is correct to just check fold...
Also if you mix it up more, people will respect your checks more which can be useful...
Hopefully other people can elaborate more...just don't fall into the trap of thinking I have to continuation bet every flop because "they could have missed too"
