I've noticed that a solid hesitation before a C-bet will increase the probability of somoene folding. This may only work in lower limits though, (10NL). Anyone else tried this?

If you're going to do that then make sure you hesitate before you bet when you legitimately have a hand as well.

Renton will become famous soon enough
 bet crazy amounts.

Like if the pot is 16 bucks at the stakes I play, I will bet something like 10.25 or 11.75.

It seems to increase the likelihood for me.

After I've established that I'm a habbitual flop bettor, I like checking the flop and betting the turn every now and then.

All of the above are solid points.

c-betting all in against short stacks seems to encourage them to call.
