Default Re: HUSNGs -- SB Raise Sizes

Which is why certain posters (including AXPG or whatever his name was, haven't seen him post in a while though) have recommend continuation betting very close to 100% of the time in position.

If "good" opponents are basically playing fit-or-fold when OOP, then a continuation bet is going to be massively profitable.

Especially if they'll fold just as frequently (as in, every time they've missed the flop) to a 1/2 pot bet as they will to a 2/3 or 3/4 pot bet.

At the 11s you will find plenty opposition against which cbetting close to 100% is massively -EV

Yes. But people at the $11s aren't playing fit or fold oop, either.

They're playing "Oh, I think I'll call that pot-sized bet here with T6 on the AK2 flop, cause I don't believe him".

I don't think that playing fit or fold is good BB strategy.

I don't want to type in a different number while I am playing, especially at the turbos. I want to get the action going as fast as I can while my edge is at it's largest.

I don't see how it matters what you raise PF.

I could pull up dozens of games where I clearly become sick of my opponent not calling my 3x bets and start min-raising, only to see more folding.

I think that this discussion would go further if we touched on what/when to re-raise PF, since this seems to be a common problem I see.

I think that the hand example would have had the same conclusion whether you raised 2 or 3x the blinds.
