It's hard to say when you should be putting your chips in without seeing hand histories to critique. When the blinds are 10/20 or 25/50, though, "betting big" can be betting $150 or $250. If you've already hit a monster hand, you may get someone to come along for the ride, and they'll call you down on every street. If you're throwing out continuation bets and get some resistance, you can dump the hand without committing tons of chips.
Again, without any hand histories, the answer is really "It depends."
