Default Re: 8/b - Reraise with wheel draw on 3rd?

[ QUOTE ]
Another advantage to being the only low draw against the high hand.You may accidently end up with 2 pair & scoop,whereas if other lows are in there,they can take the low side or even win the high side with a straight or whatever.

[/ QUOTE ] My current philosophy is to encourage my opponent's mistakes by putting pressure on them. My flat calling on 3rd didn't accomplish this at all .. Some players will limp with weak razz hands then call the two bets cold - I need to encourage this .. they are not making a mistake by calling for just the full bet. If they do call 2 bets, then apparently I'll have a slight advantage and might win a monster pot if I make the wheel. If they fold, then I get the advantages of heads up play + their dead money. I was getting too cute with the ruts before and the forum cured me of that, no I ain't letting in anyone cheap on 3rd unless I have a true monster like 345 suited.
