He was just gutted that he didn"t get your chips... good fold
Just going to run a hand I won earlier, which hopefully shows the benefits of a raise.....
Hero 4605
Villian 3540
blinds 20/40
I have the button with
kd
Cut off raises to 120
I re-raise to 280
Villian calls and so does cut off
Pot is 880
Flop ks

Villian checks, cut off checks and I bet 400
SB insta min raises me to 800
Now I am pretty sure what hand he has KK, KJ, JJ, 88 or AA
Given that he raises KK or AA pre, I can discount them. Anyway I make the call to re-evaluate on the turn.
Pot is now 2480
Turn is now a :

This obviously keeps me interested and sb bets 800.
This bet suggests he is pretty big so i put him on 88 or JJ now.
So I call this bet with the flush draw in tow, knowing full well that I will fold to any paired board or I miss my draw. The pot is pretty big as well and I am sure I can stack the villian if it hits.
Pot is now 4080
River is a bingo
Villain bets 1320
I put him all in and he has to call.
10k pot.
Raising works kids Villain is not a real villain btw
