Would this advice is more applicable when playing against opponents who are frequently check/raising and would often try to take you off of your hand after you c-bet? Because otherwise i would think that by c-betting a "weak" hand (4-5 outs) we want to try to win the pot on the flop or have outs to improve on later streets if called. Folding the hand would not be difficult if our opponent has a low c/r frequency and our hand has low implied value.


Obviously that's a small point of contention. Great post ISF! This advice will definitely benefit my game.
