Default Re: Minraising pre flop. WHY I don\'t think it\'s all-that-bad!

1. doesnt matter

2. they have odds, but my whole point was they're still, pre flop, paying 2*bb on a hand they wouldn't have limped with if they had to pay 2*bb all at once to do. they're being "dragged in", which makes their first call a mistake.

3. I wouldnt do it with bad cards, I'd do it with cards that play well in a big pot.

To me, given that everyone who limps now calls (as they have odds), its effectively doubling the blinds at my will when I have an advantage. Raising a pot size doesn't have this effect.
