Re: Hand question -- right raise?
[ QUOTE ]
I agree with Pants. However, your reply to him is a bit confusing. My takeaway from Pant's advice is that I might change-up my behavior by raising even more -- maybe an even $100. They might think the raise so bizzare that they think you have two pair and are trying to steal the pot -- and call you. If they don't call, you've lost nothing. However, like Pants said, first you have to be established with them as someone who actually might make a play like that. Maybe you've shown 2-7 offsuit bluffs in the past. If so, they might call you. That's how I read his post.

Yeah, I understood what Pants was saying. It's really an issue of EV--keep your image in mind when trying to maximize your EV. This swings either way: it might lead to you bet more or less.
