Re: Minraising pre flop. WHY I don\'t think it\'s all-that-bad!
The point I think of the min-raise PRE-FLOP is only to grow the pot, not b/c opponents are making a "mistake" by calling 2 bbs instead of one. That's limit thinking and doesn't belong here. Post-flop min-raises are retarded unless it's at the river.

Way to define your hand.

There are my types of hands that do well in a big pot, i.e., any low pp, suited connectors, suited aces. This range is quite large and opponents may not know which you have when the board comes with a straight and a flush draw.
That said, I have never min-raised pre-flop so I don't really know if this is a profitable play against certain opponents or not. I think it could be quite profitable against passive players that will never play back at a pf min-raise.
