Default Re: Raising Preflop

Hmm, I don't post in this forum much anymore, but I'll take a shot at this.

There are times you want callers and there are times you don't. Raising only in one situation (where you want callers) may be a correct play at lower limits against players that don't pay much attention, but it can't be correct in tougher games.

Very simply. If you only raise in situations where you want callers, observant players will soon learn to fold to your raises correctly. Thus, your opponents will be playing fundamentally correct against you and by the fundamental theorem of poker, you will not win their money.
