Default Re: Another funky limp re-raise

I've read nothing but the OP, so here goes

1. the victim and action of this move is wrong. what you want is the a LAG on your right who makes a ton of raises that get multiway pots going. having the SB raise can be a real threat here as he may wake up with a real hand. I'd be much more likely to just call with my position and take chips that way.

2. any time you LRR, you're representing a monster. so bet it like you would; bet enough ST your flop push will be all-in. so if you have $100, make it 25. you want folding equity here preflop and flop.

I guess i don't like it because it's inopportune and there are better alternatives. if you have a bad lag on your right giving you problems and there's a good amount of dead money to subsidize, then by all means.

EDIT: If i'm forced to play it your way until the river, i'm shoving it in there 100% of the time and getting called <50% of the time. I hope you did.
