Hi there i'm new to the forum and poker in general. Couldn't find much on the search button so it's just a quick question.

After raising preflop against 1-2 opponents, is it always wise/the best decision to c-bet? It usually works well for me especially with only 1 opponent even when I don't hit the flop. I guess it's also a nice way of trying to find out where you are post-flop when big cards hit.

Such as before when I had 5s6s and the flop was Ks2dJc and I put out a nice c-bet after a check and he folded.

Is it always the right thing to do though? It seems to work well.
