Perhaps there are some instances where both apply, but never are we value betting and hoping for a fold, because in order to value bet, we beat villain's range, and hence if he calls we make more money than if he folds.

This is really basic poker concepts, you really need to figure out why your logic of hoping for a fold when you think you're ahead is retarded.

There is a 3rd reason but it doesn't really need to be said because it'll just cloud cobra's mind. It also doesn't apply nearly as often in hold em as it does in PLO.
