I have been thinking about the 2/3 bet size.
Generally, it seems like the best bet heads up because anyone with a moderately strong draw like OESD or Flush will have to pay more than their draw is worth. Ie. if villain has 8 outs and is committed to seeing the river, then if we bet 1/2 pot they get pot odds of 2:1 which is pretty much what they need. If we bet 2/3 pot then we charge them more than they can profitably draw with. It also gets a lot of value when we are ahead without folding out too many second best hands.
