Re: What are you thinking when someone check-min-raises the flop?
My first thought was a monster draw (e.g., AdQT9d) trying to keep as many folks in for as much $ as possible, but there's a double danger here -- one, that the three callers are eating the min-raiser's outs, and two, that the original raiser will push everyone else out and ruin the min-raiser's pot odds. I'd be more likely to put in a min-raise in this position if one of the three callers re-raised before me instead.
So I suppose I'd have to have a strong made hand with a strong redraw (e.g., AdJJxd). A check-min-raise here would be fun -- it would confuse the heck out of everyone; a lower set would have trouble passing and may even push; and I'd welcome the other callers as well, who would then be more likely to be eating each other's straight outs.
