Re: Using a min-raise in PLO
[ QUOTE ]
Well-written post but doesn't answer my question really. Doesn't a bigger raise get you the same information with more fold equity when your behind and more value when your ahead?

Its a good question.
A 3/4 or 1/2 pot bet gets me the same info, but at a higher price. If I am behind and he comes back over the top, I'll have to muck. And there's really no additional fold equity at that price. A PSB will have fold equity against a flush draw, but the price of that information is too high for me here with this hand in a 4 way.
If I am ahead, sure I may get a little more value, but by increasing the pot I have increased the leverage he will have if he decides to bluff the river. Do I really want to face an 80-100BB bet on the river with TPTK? But I am fine snapping off a smaller bluff with this.
