Recap: Small raise preflop and 6 players to the flop has the pot at around $25. I flop top two pair, bad flush draw, and a bad low draw.

Obviously this hand doesn't want to play against a big field since most of my draws wouldn't be good.


I'll save my analysis for later, but I basically want to know what you'd bet the majority of the time. I think that bet sizing in NLO8 is something that I'm still working on and could improve. Of course you can always fall back on a pot sized bet, but with that you'll often give people too good of odds to their draws.

So while I did provide a specific hand, I'd like to also have a general discussion of bet sizing if possible. How often do you overbet the pot and with what hands? It seems simpler to just go all in on many occassions, but I have to think that we're leaving some money on the table by doing that in that we don't give our opponents a chance to make a mistake of calling when they're not getting the odds to do so.
