Default Re: The Pre Flop Raise

The problem I find witht he min raise is you dont know what your playing against. If soemone min raises me and I have 2 7 on the bb im calling. I always hope the person has a big hand when they min raise because im in no danger of losing alot but the person min raising is. I think the min raise does have a place in ones arsenal though. If your in the late stages of a tourney the min raise is usaully useless also. Once the antes kick in you need to raise to 4x bb if you want the bb to fold. I find using the min raise on a lp raiser and leading off with a small bet on any flop works well. That and when I'm shortstacked and have a big pair and want to get all my money in and making the villion feel compelled to call me.
