Re: $55: Overpair in level 1
The reason I would call this pre-flop raise with my 88 is that my bet closes out the action and I don't have to worry about another raise after me. I know that an anecdote is not evidence, but this very situation happened to me tonight when I limped with 77 in level 1 and called a 60 chip raise because I closed out the betting. I flopped a set and raked in about 1700 more chips when some donk called my all-in on the turn with his pair of 9s.
