Low stakes cash game. You've got good pockets. Do you try to play for a showdown for a possible big pot or try to push others out by raising?

I've heard several points of view on this topic.
Why do we bet?
1. To build the pot in case we win it
2. Deny our opponents equity
So the answer is both. Many variables play into proper bet sizing, the biggest being our opponents playing type.

Always raise. They will find a way to call.

When you get a premium hand you have to try and maximize profit. Very few starting hands turn a profit over time.

The main thing you want to do is control the hand. You decide how many players you want in the hand and what you want the pot to be on each street.

Post flop play with big hands is where a lot of money is made or lost. Don't get married to those aces if you know you are beat.
