haha i am with glo on this one.....back to bed, joking....

Pot control is just has important has postion.

good post by the way kings (i already thank you)

i will give another example: first to act at a 1/2 cash nl limit table you have 100 infornt of you.

you get dealt JJ i am ethier limping here or min raise.. lets say you min raise to 4 bucks.....and you get 3 callers, so 4 in the pot all together. the pot is 16 bucks....

flop comes Q 10 2 rainbow......you are thinking in your head damn Q lol.....Since you min raise poeple dont know what you really have and know one reraised you to get info on your hand... So you can control the pot here by betting 6 bucks here.....1 reason is someone with AQ is rerasing you to 12 bucks and you can fold for a total of ten dollars (depending on which player reraises you like a nit) if a aggersive player reraise you i am three betting him back here to win the pot because he is prob reraising you with a pair like a 10.

2. you can bet 10 bucks on this flop...now since you bet ten here and someone reraises you FOLD....unless you have an exanlty read on someone...

3. you could try a bet 4 here to control the flop....and if people are calling you you can bet 4 on the turn and on the river which will equal 16 bucks...

i dont know if i helped here or kind of gave example how to win a pot and not pot control but, i hoped i helped....
