Default Re: 215 blind battle.. what do YOU do?

I feel like this is one of the few spots where a miniraise is good. I don't play the 215s, but I think at the lower levels, this is what applies: One option is to call here, which IMO, you get very little information. Once I call, opponent might fire another shell on a blank turn, in which case I would probably fold, but ill never know. The next option is to fold, which seems out of the question cus that is just too weak tight. Finally, you can raise. An all in raise is out of the question for obvious reasons, so it comes down to how much. IMO, a raise of 525 seems too much , as you can get the same info for a cheaper price. Lets say you miniraise: raise 200. So pot is at 650. Its 200 more for opponent to call. If he has AK, he has 8 outs, with 3:1 pot odds. He is screwin himself by calling a miniraise. So if he doesnt call, he will raise allin or fold. The all in seems a bit too aggressive, unless he has some read that you will fold most decent hands there. This is going to probly have to read dependent, but alot opponents, i suspect would probly fold to this miniraise if they had AK. If he has high pair, he is either going all in or reraising you, in which case this is an easy fold after the miniraise. Only thing i haven't really addressed is if he calls the miniraise with the high pair. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] Are the the 215s different? Lemme know if this sounds like BS... it is 4:30 AM.
