Re: Cold call a raise question
[ QUOTE ]
i am so confused on cold calling a raise.
is cold calling a raise the same thing as a raise in front?

A cold call is, by definition, calling more than a single bet.
Scenario 1:
Preflop, you're in late position. A player limps, next player raises, everyone folds to you. It's now two bets to you and if you call those two bets, that's a cold call. There is almost no situation where you should cold call here - either raise or fold.
Scenario 2:
Preflop, you're in late position. A player limps, folds around to you and you limp. Next player behind you raises. It comes back to you but you only have to call a single bet. This is not a cold call, and you should almost always make the call.
Does that make it more clear?
