Default Calling Raises

I don't know if this has been covered before so here goes...

If you're sitting in a game and you are have a calling hand pre-flob and are raised after you call, do you go ahead an call the raise to see the flop? Using the above scenario, do you also call a re-raise also? My thinking may be wrong but it seems to me that if you have a calling hand and are raise-reraised after the call that you should make another call....

Looking forward to the replies....

If you limp and are raised once, always call.
If you limp and are raised twice, tend to fold.

Players who consistently call a raise+reraise after limping are suckers.

Depends on the hand. I limp so few hands that it doesn't happen to often. But if I have Axs, i'll usually fold because if I limp, the x is usually 2-7

If I have a PP, 22-or up, probably no higher than 88, cause i'd raise everything else, I'd call 2 more and the evenutal cap if I could see it would be 5-6 action.

But generally, if you limped in with suited trash like Q9, or KT, i'm folding them all to a raise and re raise from decent players.

if your hand was worth calling, now you are getting better pot odds after 1 raise, you should always call, except if you have some crap out of the sb or something, facing 2 raises, it depends on your hand and other factors

I would call two raises only if the pot is going to be 4-5 way and you have a hand that plays well in multiway pots such as PP, Axs, or suited connecter. Calling 2 bets back to you when the pot will be 3 handed is a mistake with these hands and in gerneral calling two bets back to you with a hand like kqo or ajo that is lielky dominated is a bad idea

Reads are important for me here. If the re-raiser is more likely to be reraising w/ big hands then I'm more likely to call with hands like 89s, TJs, etc... those hands that aren't subject to domination.
