Default Re: Mini-raisers!

How has this guy played to this point? Usually when someone min raises in a situation like this it means they don't have a good understanding of how to play SNGs. They think, "Oh it folded to me, I'm supposed to try to steal" and min raise. Yeah, he's correct to call a push, but a lot of the time will fold it anyway. In spots like this, pushing is the rule rather than the exception for me, and I make a note of this hand.

Default Re: Mini-raisers!

I push when the button or sb minraises my BB as a default as well as long as my table image is non-maniac. However, I've gotten trapped this way more than a few times when they realize I will push about 50% of the time when the blinds get serious. So, is pushing over the top of a minraise exploitable? What about calling an SBs minraise? This seems to set me up many times for a stop-and-go which I can't call. Basically, I don't really know what to do with a constant minraiser. Maybe I should start using it....

yeah, i've been trapped about 1/3 the time by going over the top of a min raiser.

i usually will do a stop n go unless i pair the flop, then i check raise all in.
