We can just raise and hopefully take the pot down preflop or have 1 caller and will be able to take it down most of the time on the flop with a cbet. These small pots are going to far outway the times you entice 3 callers flop a set and stack one of them.
You also don't wan't to be raising your premiums bigger than any other hand you'd raise for value 1stly if its worth raising for value do it correctly 2ndly you don't want to start alerting people to when you have a premium hand.
People limping are generally not paying attention to your exploitable betsizing imo. I would definately raise as big as I possibly can when I raise for value vs a 60/4 cs fish or similair. In fact I think varying bet size can be good vs fish so long as you got a decent grasp on their game, if they call you down every time or fold every flop, regardless though fish in general no matter their playstyle like calling ridiculous sized preflop bets.
Also does your advice regarding limped pots above apply even if there's a "guaranteed" caller playing say 60/4 and who will most likely call almost every flop bet? Or would you prefer as the other guy said to setmine? And if so does that mean we should just play fit or fold in general vs these guys?
