Outs is unimportant here, relative to how you perceive your implied odds and your fold equity; I would much rather raise with an 8-outer when I think I get a fold frequently then with a 18-outer where I think my opponent is strong.

it's important to remember that playing big draws fast can be a great way to turn a very profitable situation into a coin toss.

If i've got an 18 outer on the flop, I should be raising for value. Don't care if opponent is strong or not.

you seem to have missed cmyr's point. raising an 18 outer for value is clearly always profitable, but just calling is sometimes much more so.

edit: the same can be said for hands like top set.

I didn't miss his 'point', he just explained a situation where the 'point' he was trying to make, was not applicable.
