like threads said its obviously good to bet more if opponent is prone to overcalling.

I don't see why you need to raise more than 4bb+1bb per limper against people whom over call. Thats what you want them to do not try to fold them. If they are over calling you should have no problem building the pot after the flop.

I think there is a mix up in the language. I never said anything about players overcalling.

I said I will make a huge raise if they tend to call too much(aka they are loose). I will raise >5x the BB if I have a loose player that is likely to call the raise. It is just about exploiting his tendencies.

I guess this is ok but remember if there are players behind you to act and they are any good they now know what your hand is and/or your keeping other wanted customers from comming in but I don't think raising a calling station 5bb is out of the norm as 4bb+1bb is standard if he has limped and if he hasn't what if he doesn't call but mr. 14/7 or 18/6 has a hand like a-q or k-q suited? I would want him calling too but I doubt he is if you suddlenly open for 5bb.
