Because of multi-tabling, i usually don't have any reads.

Is it better to err on the side caution and treat min raises as a 3bb raise?

or be aggressive and treat it as if they limped?

"Know thy opponent" /images/graemlins/grin.gif If it's a name I've recognized that plays a healthy amount of SNG's then I might give it more respect than someone new who's done it 2 or 3 times in the past in that SNG. If it's coming from the button/SB though and I'm the BB well then that's a different story and I'm liable to do lots of stupid things in that situation.

BTW, have we played together?

I 4 table, and I do it by stack size. This is very general, and i'm wrong probably 30% of the time, but it's better than the 50/50 you get with a total guess. If the blinds are say 50/100 and someone with a stack of around 800 (in a 50+5) raises the minimum, I treat it with a lot of respect. If a large stack does it, it may as well be a call.
