THE FIRST BET IS A BET, THE SECOND ONE IS A RAISE

oh yeah and this terminology abuse is annoying but I'm not quite sure if it actually TILTS me. I think people largely do it because "raise" and "reraise" are the correct terms for 1st and 2nd actions preflop, and there's a lot of preflop poker on TV (a la donkaments). But that's no excuse.

Pre-Flop:
Big Blind=> First Bet => You can call / fold / raise.
Flop / Turn / River => You can check / bet.

Thank you for this clarification. Is it supposed to be a response to my comment, or relevant to the discussion in some way?

my friend does this crap whenever someone min bets in nl.. "nice min raise" when its postflop and not a raise

[infinity235]

It's happening in the micro strat forums all the time. Whenever a raise happens, people say "wow you should fold to that reraise" and then I'm like... "reraise? there was a reraise?" so i look back to the original thread and see no 3-bet and get pretty angry.

i find it hilarious when some moran who has watched poker on TV tries to act like a pro and does this.

"raise 10"
and the dealer immediately corrects it like an echo:
"bet 10"

[JokersAttack]

lol that reminds me about the guy who came second in the PLO event at the pokernews cup at the Crown Casino for like 15k, who always said all in and continued to do so even after corrected by the announcers reporting the action.

Player X: "all in".
Announcer: "player x says he's all in but that's really just a bot sized bet of 100k".

I started to tilt after about the 10th time he did it in HU.
