standard?

Betting that big seems like a huge leak to me and completely unnecessary.

lol, it depends on the image and your patterns, i always bet close to pot no matter if i am bluffing or value betting

no it's not ;p

it's the same as saying that raising pf 3bb+bb per limper is leak, while 4bb +bb per limper is correct play.

I think the real question is why do you bet like a bitch in yours?

c-betting big is the nuts

It doesn't matter on image and patterns. It makes the pot huge while you're out of position with non-nut hands and gives you fewer options in a number of hands. It also makes it so your bluffs have to be correct with a much higher frequency to win similar sized pots. If you're value betting big hands you're capable of getting it in on 3 streets or by check raising the turn regardless so betting the flop huge is unnecessary and just taking away from your ability to play future streets with the majority of your hands.

It's not similar at all and comparing this and what I'm talking about just seems like a really really stupid comparison.

To give me more flexibility on future streets. Please point out a hand where my bet sizing is completely faulty and without solid reasoning, please.

And note, when I say non-nut hands, I'm not talking about this hand but in other situations.

In many ways its a double edged sword imo. There are pros/cons with both small and large c-bets. If you play a grinding TAG style i think large is the way to go usually

heh, you statements makes no sense, "playing huge pots oops...", but the pots you are playing in possition are huge too.
it doesn't matter if you bet strong or weak it depends how you adjust your betting, betting strong puts so much pressure on the opponent and in same times gives me more info on how he acts.
basically you just playing a bigger pots and it makes no difference, you win more and you lose more it just increases the variance
