Villan on the BU was pretty aggro and figured he would bet his entire range here.
Villan in CO seemed quite straight forward after about 20 hands.

My hand is so strong that I thought this might let me get more money in?

He's gotta be pretty aggro to bet his whole range here. I think this line makes your hand look as strong as possible, with the added badness of making CO call 2 bets cold. I'd rather just bet the flop and c/r turn - if villain is that aggro he'll be just as happy to bet the turn which makes you more money.

Can you explain what you mean by this?

That was really poor wording. Smile I was saying that part of the reason I don't like c/r the flop is because we're forcing CO to call a bet and a raise cold. We maximize the chance that BN takes a stab on the flop, but that's about it.

Thanks for the clarification Smile

Why is this a bad thing?
