I've read that a 4bet sized to be twice the 3bet is the norm and that it is a good size to balance your value hands with your bluff because when you're bluffing you can easily fold to another raise and you invite calls and induce bluffs from aggroes when you have a monster.
This 2x size with give villain pot odds somewhere near 3.2 to 1 so he needs 20% equity for a break even call. 66 has 19.5% vs AA While 87S Has 30%. So if villain was in position he can practically call with everything and try to realize his equity. Is that something that we want to happen?
It's true that with a effective 100bb stack villain doesn't have the implied odds to make good calls but none the less he can still take your stack making break even preflop calls.
It's even worst when the effective stack is 150bb+, giving villain good implied odds.
So what do you guys think? Is this sizing the best still? That we should keep this size for balance and chalk it up as variance when we get cracked or make the sizing bigger and bluff less? Or some other option?
