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

I've been thinking about this recently as I've been a strong follower of Eric Lindgren's 2BB raise in early position and 3BB raise in late position philosophy.

I've noticed a lot of times in later stages of tournaments my 2BB raise from UTG is folded around. Does anyone think there's a certain "tell" part to this? That is in later stages of a tournament people who are trying to blind steal and don't want a call will raise 5BBs but if they have a powerful hand and want a call they'll miniraise and hope to induce some calls. Thus, your miniraise, to them, looks like you have a powerful hand and are inducing them to call.

Any thoughts on that?
