Very few bet more than pot anyway, and in ery few cases, so if 3 betting is betting pot, i dont see how that makes pot sizes any smaller, i rarely see any bets over pot size.

And for example, if you have 5 people who called that 6$ raise preflop, and he now bets 6$, and 3 fold to you. Then you wouldnt 3 bet? but bet more according to pot?

So basically its just going back to odds.

When 3 betting gives him odds to chase, you dont do it. When it doesnt, you do. So i dont see how its a separate strategy. Maybe im just not getting it...

3 betting is really a preflop strategy mostly, after the flop you have to play your hand accordingly. Also its a strategy that needs a bet in front of you, if you are 1st to open then its ok to 3 bet the blinds, but if you get 5 limpers in front of you then you have to do more then 3 bet of course.

if you are 1st to open the pot on the flop then again there is nothing to 3 bet so again you have to play your hand accordingly, now if there is $25 in pot before you and guy does a blocking bet for $5 I would 3 bet him to $15 to keep him in. Before you say no one would bet $5 into $25, yes they would its a common thing for a draw to block bet small or a set to try to induce a bluff. By 3 betting here I gain alot more info then re- raising to $30 which would be the pot.
