I'm reading many threads in the LLSNL sticky. The main theme to making money is "Make a hand and bet the living crap out of them!"
Where I'm getting it confused is, how do we know when we have the nuts?
For example, here's a hand I lost to yesterday:
I had A4suited
Opponent A6
Flop:
A64 rainbow
We got it in on the flop.
Now obviously I'm trying to bloat the pot here to get value from AK, AQ, etc etc but I'm doomed and I don't even know it. Is this just a spot where we go broke and try again, or can you honestly tell me you guys will find a fold.
Now reading some of these LLSNL threads It's all confusing to me.
This thread for example:

If I'm holding the J8 in that hand, and the board has a flush draw, I'm basically trying to pump that pot so big, or even get it in on that flop.
According to him though, "THIS IS HOW YOU MAKE MONEY AT LOW STAKES" by crushing nits that hold 2 pair on flops like that.
How are you going to tell me that it could of easily been reversed roles and you'd still be getting it in with the J8 on that flop.. You're ahead of so many hands.
If we're not getting it in there, and are only waiting for sets flushes and straights then how are we not the nits?
Maybe after typing this out, I'm feeling like I possibly am creating too much value for 2 pair hands... I'd like to hear some advice.
