Perhaps you might have an example that I could relate to? Personally I fail to understand the difference between 'pushing someone off the pot with a big raise', and 'outplaying your opponent'.

Is it an upper echelon thing, where if Howard Ledered raised the pot $4000, he's saying he's bluffing and buying the pot, please don't call me....whereas if he had bet $2000 instead he's representing betting for value when he actually has nothing at all?
