Default Re: It\'s about time we had this discussion

I like the idea of raising less against fish who call too much both preflop and postflop, however i would do this based on the player and not on my hand. for example if i usually raise a late position limper when i have the button to 5xbb i would raise 4xbb if the said limper was a calling station post flop and i would do this whether i had AA or 67cc.

I tend to bet more against players who fold too much and less against players who call too much. At first glance betting less against players who call too much doesnt seem to make sense however since most of the time i wont have a hand it allows me to keep the pots small and chips away at him.

As far as raising differant amounts based specifically on our hand i disagree as anyone paying attention can put you on a range easily. Much of the value in playing a laggy style comes from the preflop decpetion we gain by opening alot of hands and i think we would be giving away too much information by changing things up based on our hand.
