Re: LO8 1/2 - Was I wrong in pumping this Pot?
[ QUOTE ]
Explain why I should raise pre-flop. The reason for raising is to
1. get people OUT of the hand
2. get people already in the hand to put more money in it.
Is it because the hand is not that good so I raise to get people OUT of it?
Explain why I should raise. If it is a hand that I think I can scoop the pot if I hit why would I raise to get people not to play the hand.

Your opponents are not going to fold just because you raised. They're simply going to call two bets cold with 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] instead of one. Your hand is good. Build the pot.
