yes, but that wasn't the point.
the point was...if you want villain to get X price and he bet y% of pot, you should bet Z much. right? clearly if the pot is 100 and he bets 10 and you feel you're best, raising to 30 is somewhere between dumb and weird (now he's getting 7:1 and pretty much will call with any two and be right to do so). and if he bets 50 and you raise him to 150 (which offers him 2:1) it's much less powerful than if he bet 100 and you make it 400 (which offers him 3:2).
the article seems to me to be pretty typical harrington cook-book type advice, which is okaydokay with me.
