Debate23 had 1500 chips. 80 chips is not enough to chase them away in my opinion.

Would you see them calling with a pair higher than 5? How about 77,88,99,TT? Would 80 chips be enough to chase them away? I'd think not.

The other two players had no read on N1kita. If she had bet more on flop, she might have deterred her opponents from going all-in on turn, giving her a chance to see the river card.

As for the comment I made on the AQ that was in my previous thought, thinking she went all in on river. Bad beat. My mistake.

edit: Not saying you played this wrong. You played it by the book. Which is how most people would play it. I said it once and I'll say it again; 'to each his own'.

Bold comments above....in addition

Bdawg said most of it, but the point I think you are missing is the point of betting is to make players make mistakes by calling. 4/5s the pot is enough to make you make a mistake by calling on a flush draw, an even bigger mistake by calling with a gutshot, and an unbelievable mistake by calling with a PP below Queens!

If you have Ax, I technically want you around, so I want to make callable bets.

If you bet 2x the pot in any situation, you should only be called if you are beat unless you are playing at a very poor table. In which case you could of gotten your information cheaper

Edit: You are beign results oriented. If Nikita bet 200 and the player folded saying ok Im folding a medium ace good bet (and didn't see the turn or river), would you still think she bet the flop correctly?
