Theory Post: Varying betsizes postflop on account of POSITION

[Relvin]

I just started thinking about this. It is an accepted convention for many to 3bet preflop out of the blinds a little more then pot (given full stacks) to negate implied odds and position a little.

Do you guys vary your postflop betsizes solely on the variable of position? I'll give some simple examples, the only thing that will ever change is position in each example.

1) Flop comes A72r, (for the sake of this unrealistic example we will say that you are 100% sure the guy has AT and will call you down so that you know you are value betting, but of course he is only willing to call certain amounts). So we are not really scared of redraws, we just want to take him to value town. Do you bet slightly less when in position taking into accuont that opponents are willing to call less when out of position on the flop? Or do you not factor this into you thinking? If so on the turn do you against bet less? Do you only use this type of thinking against decent opponent who value position (probably ..)

2) This time we are bluffing. We figure we can bluff a smaller amount IP then OOP to get a guy to fold. Do you guys bet less on flop bluffs IP then OP given exact same scenario in both spots?

summary:

-Bet more when bluffing OOP then IP against someone that values position on flop because it will take more to make him fold when he is IP? I am guessing against bad players it is probably just better to lean towards betting less because they don't really distinguish between the bet sizes much.
- make smaller value bets IP when you are pretty sure you are ahead and not scared of redraw because the opponent will fold more readily OOP but in same scenario bet more OP because person is willing to call bigger bets IP.

Sorry if this is trivial or bad but I am somewhat new to cash games and was wondering if any of you have thoughts on this. Please expand this thought process if you find this to be a useful idea also.
