Re: Continuation Bet Article

1. Some players prefer a standard sized bet on the flop no matter if the flop hit them or not. Same amount, every time. Very hard to read. Others vary their bet amount depending on the texture of the board. Either works. As does betting less than 3/4ths of the pot. I know from experience.

That's partly the point of the article, as I used to be one of these players as well. What I'm stating, if you read the whole thing, is that there is a more optimal way to make continution bets that maximizes your wins when you're ahead, minimizes your losses when behind, and is still impossible to read.

2. And an unpaired hand will flop at least one pair 32% of the time. If the hand is suited and or connected, it will hit the flop with a draw another 5-15% of the time. So, your 70% figure is a little high.

Yes, I think in the final I changed that to 65%, which apparenly I cut and pasted a previous version. Thanks though.
