Default Re: Strange NL betting rule

[ QUOTE ]
Understanding the effect of other people's actions when sizing your bet makes lots of sense (this is true with 1/2 bet or full bet rules). Even with a full bet if you see a short stack who you think will push in response to your bet, and you want to be able to come back over when they do, you make sure that you bet the correct amount. If the short stack has $40, you bet $20 hoping the SS pushes and a few other players call so that you can come back over.

I know, for some reason the 1/2 bet rule struck me as a problem, even though it should basically be the same. That's what I want to think through a bit.
