Absolutely -- in the KT example, I think overbetting is generally a big mistake and can cost you a river bet from your opponent. This is why assessing your hand's strength is important in order to determine what hands you beat are going to call and how much they would call. Naturally as you said this mistake adds up A LOT quicker than the other

Interesting, since I would think making a large river bet would make a thinking player more likely to call than if you bet that smallish amount. If he was a thinking player, he would assume that with such a small bet that it is unlikely for you to be bluffing considering he will be getting good odds and a large bet would be what he would assume you would bluff with. Against lesser thinkers I think betting small is better because they'll just think of pot odds and mindlessly call.
Or maybe he would assume a bigger bet would be a value bet because he is a level ahead of you. Mind games are fun. |
