Re: Simple TT preflop question.
[ QUOTE ]
Albert - raising to $20 accomplishes nothing. There are no few safe flops for TT in a 5 way pot. If you raise to $75, you get more money put into the pot by probably one person who is a dog to outflop your hand, then you c-bet nearly every flop and make a profit. If you get multiple callers, you can be warier of c-betting, but the pot's also going to be larger.
If you had 33, min-raising like this might be cool because you're rarely c-betting and flopping a set here would be sweet. but i can't imagine it with this stack size.

Ok. I actually mis-read the hand.
I thought it was 5/5 not 5/10. Meaning that I thought the stacks were twice as deep as they actually were and that the size of the limped pot was half as big as it actually was. I had just assumed that the OP had over 100bb in his stack to start and I skimmed right over the blind level seeing what I wanted to see.
Oh, well. Disregard my post.
If it was 5/5, then a medium sized raise might be better than a raise to 15x the bb, however.
I was up early and wrote my post before my second cup of coffee.
At least min-raising is a novel, non-standard idea that made somebody laugh.
