Beware the mini-Re Raise in B&M 1/2 NLHE games.
I've seen many players in 1/2 NLHE games make mini-re-raises with their AA/KK in these B&M cash games. The counter strategy is simply to SILENTLY thank them and smooth call with your QQ using the strategy...no set/no bet. If you get a flop of AQx or KQx.....turn your radar on to detect a possible set over set....

I have also seen "large" or "all-in" re-raises pre-flop disproportionate to the current pot size. Be very wary around these. Especially, if the player has a smallish stack (less than a max buy-in) and has not entered any/many hands. Likely hands are AA, KK. Did I mention AA?
