There's this thread from a while back:>

Obviously bet sizing has generally moved down over last 5-8 years, and the rationale is often given as the prevalence of 3-bets.
I stick to similar levels to what Old Silver suggested, just so I don't look out of the ordinary, but quite frankly I find a lot of the rationale flimsy.
- "I move down to 2.5BB when antes kick on" Why? One would expect that pot odds become better to come, and now you make them even better by raising less?
- "I like to do 2.2 - 2.3BB when stacks are shorter" Why again? If the rationale is small, then why not min 2BB
Just don't see a lot of good math/game theory on bet sizing; perhaps someone will correct me...
