Default Re: Alan Goehring on min raising - do you agree?

[ QUOTE ]
Isn't that a good thing, to want your opponents to play 'correctly' and play hands that are dominated by you?

When i'm only open raising with hands that are sure to dominate i'll let you know.

And playing 'correctly' means understanding they're behind but still getting the correct price to play a pot OOP even if they DO assing you a tight range of opening hands. If you're raising lots of hands, you might be a favorite to win the hand with position against say just the big blind, but probably not a 3.5-1 favorite (the minimum odds he's getting to call, even bigger odds after blinds are introduced).
