I know minraise often tells the others that you have a hand that is desperate for a call, but you don't want to scare them away, so it is kind of what I think could be called "Contridicting" bet.
Whenever someone posts a hand where hero minraises, they often get berated for that bet. I know it often gives away your strength when you use a minraise, but it proves to be effective vs guys that could fold their TPTK to minraises on turn. another ideal situation to use minraise is when a minraise will commit your opponent, which could frequently be the case when in a shallow game (usually PP 50 bb stacks), where pot is raised with multiple callers, and often the raiser will make a crying call that will commit them when minraised.
So how did I do? are these the correct situations to use the minraise?
