Re: Benifits of the straddle
Someone just randomly straddling once is throwing away money - absolutely.
Someone getting the straddle started or just going along with it can help improve game conditions. It's generally worth that to me as an investment.
I can recall one pot where I won a substantial amount shortly after I had straddled along with a couple other guys (it was one of their straddles) - my victim even admitted that he thought I was just goofing around again and didn't put me on a real hand.
