Nice post, Seth. The kind of response I was looking for.

What I'm doing is brain-storming on how to effectively apply these meta-game concepts to an actual game.

For instance, I have AQ UI OOP against a TAG, I have the initiative and bet the flop, turn, the river is another blank. I suspect he will only call with a hand that beats me. If I check, he'll check down the lowest range of his SD worthy hands, and bet his better hands for value. SOP here is usually to check-fold. But how often should we bet?

I understand it's impossible to quantify an exact frequency. Consider this to be more of a thought experiment of how to cultivate an image so you get paid off with your good hands against other decent players.

Over the years of reading the limit section here, it seems the more successful players have an image that's both bluffer and unbluffable. They get paid for their hands, while preventing themselves from folding too many winners.
