Re: No c-bet leads to thin-value on turn and river
My thoughts on c-betting are simple. First I follow this rule:
"Give me a reason NOT to c-bet."
If I can't come up with a good reason not to, I c-bet.
The real tricky part is understanding reasons NOT to c-bet.
Here are a few:
1) You expect to get raised a lot and your hand can't stand a raise.
2) You have nothing and are playing against a player who always calls (calling station).
3) There are too many players in the pot and you have no FE against that many villain's when you have nothing on the flop.
4) More generally, c-betting has a negative expectation against particular opponents' ranges and/or likely plays.
