Straddle? Spread Limit?

[MtDon]

When someone else has straddled, and no one else has called before you, it's generally best to either fold or raise. Even more so than when there isn't a straddle since when there is a straddle there is more money already in the pot than usual.

Many players who straddle will almost always raise when it gets to them, no matter what they have.

I've been in games where 3 wild players would straddle whenever they had a chance. So that in a 2-5 spread limit game with one $2 blind there would be the $2 blind, then straddles of $7, $12, $17. Then one or two of the straddlers would raise - to see the flop, you'd sometimes have to put in $27, then only be able to bet $5 max in any round of betting. That is called a wild game
