Preflop raise amount
 

I posted this a few days ago in the Mid,-High-Stakes forum without much feedback, so I try here and see what you guys think.

I play 6-max NL usually 2/4.

I almost always raise 4 bb + 1 bb per limper. to $16 first in, $20 with a limper etc.

If I raise from SB, BB with a decent hand that I think is the best, like AJo, I sometimes raise a little extra to make the possibility to win the pot right away bigger.

Does this sounds like a good approach? Other thoughts?

i've been raising using this formula:

PFR = (11 - PositionNumber) + 1.875 * numLimpers + (OpenRaise ? 2 : 0)

Mine has eigenvalues and spherical coordinates, with a Euler's identity thrown in for good measure...

Seriously, this might be pretty boring etc. but I guess it is some interest for it for someone that play poker for let's say 1 week. (that player should obviously hang in here in small stakes). Or is it just something everybody know right away start playing poker?

I just wonder what other players use to raise before the flop.

I Bump this pretty old thread because it is of some interest. I see everywhere players at all levels in different forums that seems to raise something else than 4bb+1bb/limper as standard.

I see semidiscussions to this from time to time and think lots of players has a different look at this so I try to bump it again and hope for some success [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img].
