Just stumbled upon this thread. Incredible.

Look it up
You appear to miss the point of his nearly four-year-old question. Madlex certainly knows what a C-bet is, and does not need to look up the term. He asked how you came to the decision to do so.
When you are the preflop raiser, do you C-bet 100 percent of the time?
• If your answer is YES, what are some examples of hands where a C-bet might be detrimental to you?
• If your answer is NO, what considerations go into your decision to C-bet or not to C-bet?
Everyone in this thread knows what a continuation bet is. That's not the issue. It's just that no one could tell you whether or not the C-bet was good, bad, or neither – nor they can they opine on your decision to check/fold if your flop bet gets called – until they knew what was behind the decision-making.
