The minimum raise after the flop, why such a crime?

Postby Yenool » Wed May 31, 2006 4:52 am

So come on guys, why is the minimum raise after the flop such a huge crime?

Is it not a tactic that can be used when you have an underpair or a big draw to find out where you are?

So many people seem to think the min-raise = monster, so surely it is worth putting in the occasional min raise with say, TT on a flop of KQ X?

preflop is a different matter...

What purpose does minraising with TT on a KQx purpose serve? You may aswell have xx there as, without a read, you're basically spewing chips. Most players won't fold AK, or even AQ, or K2 for that matter there.

The main reasons we are against the minraise, in general, (and I say in general as there ARE certain times when it is an acceptable move - ie, you have a read that this particular player is afraid of minraise and will fold to them often, or that a player will call your minraise with almost any holding but usually fold to a bigger raise - then it is a raise for value (usually on the river though)). Anyway, the reasons we are against it is that

A) if you have a marginal hand and want a fold, most people will MUCH more likely fold to a bigger re-raise than a minraise.

B) If you have a good hand, then you are letting people draw out on you for cheap and are also not getting enough value out of people with 2nd best hands (less of a chance you're going to get their stack)

C) You project the strength of your hand for a very cheap price - raising gives other people information, you want to charge them as much as possible
Poker is silly.

It is not enough to be good at chess, you must also play well.

Somewhere in the world someone is training when you are not. When you race him, he will win.
