Andy,


The only hand I'd want to get my whole stack in there with would be aces, in the early stages, and I agree with your advice. Sklansky's new book

does, in my opinion, an excellent job of explaining the concepts you outline- just one more illustration of how important it is to get a line on your opponents.


Minimum raises- horrors!! I'll raise, if first to act, three to four times the size of the big blind, whether it's aces or 10-9 suited, or even a stone bluff,(except when the normal raise

would put half, or more, of my chips- then I move in) so that others can't read me.
