i definitely raise 500 or less preflop

on the flop here in a standard 109 FO, i'm split between c/s and c/f, depending on my feel of the opponent. i'd definitely take a quick look at their pokerdb while making up my mind.

I don't have any problem with a raise to 500 or less, but why is a raise to 600 bad. The main problem I see with it is it puts you on a hand that is calling a reraise.

Keeps the pot smaller and gives us more space for maneuvering

More space for maneuvering??? What difference does it make on the flop if the pot is 1300 instead of 1500? You mean we can comfortably bet/fold in the first case but not the second? Not much room for playing poker so I don't like the word 'maneuvering' here.

I vote for open-limping or making a smaller raise which looks like one we can get away from. In Hero's case I'm just lost...
