sizing your preflop raise with the strength of your hand is a very, very bad idea

not at all

I do it all the time

Do you realize how many hands it takes for an opponent to catch onto a simple strategy? Do you realize how smart of an opponent it takes to adjust to that correctly? D you realize that the EV we lose by opponents exploiting different preflop raise sizes is wayyyy smaller than the Ev gain in the hands?


People who just say "baaad" probably haven't tried it.

lol your logic is so bad... good players will notice within 100 hands and note it right away. Also, i don't see the EV gain in raising smaller.

He's probably thinking about how he loses less money when he cbets smaller and gets called by a better hand. But he's failing to take in to account the fact that smaller cbets are more likely to be called by better (but still bad) hands than larger cbets.
