| Raises - Variable or Same This has been touched on in other threads, but I thought it may merit conversation on it's own. Please post reasons in addition to voting in the poll.
I've read two diametrically opposed beliefs on how to handle this, and both quote the same reason.
If you have a raising hand:
Option 1 - Always raise the same amount, to camouflage the strength of your hand (I think the first book I read that had this strategy was one by Cloutier, but I'm not sure)
Option 2 - Vary your raise randomly, to camouflage the strength of your hands (for instance, always raise between 3-5x the bb with AA, but vary randomly... this is the strategy that Harrington has in the HOH) |
