| When to Re-Raise at the Flop? Let's assume you're in a 45 person SNG. You have more then an average stack with 25 people left. You're going smooth and steady but anything could happen. You're in mid-position preflop and call a min raise from the button with your Ace-Ten-ish hand. You and the button see a rag flop. You check, He raises 1.5 times the pot, or so. Now, if I was him, I'd make that same raise no matter what hand I held. It's a token raise, and I know that. And I also know that I'd probably fold to any resistence. (Please ignore the fact that it's probably WRONG to check. I'd probably bet at the flop in these circumstances. But this is a fake scenario and it basically gets my point across.) So.. In Summary: When do you re-raise the button when he makes that 'token raise' at the flop? Any tips? |

| re: When to Re-Raise at the Flop? poker If I remove the Theoretical Situation from the question and only answer the question. When do you re-raise the button when he makes that 'token raise' at the flop? In my opinion this would be completely decided on your read of the player. Watching his previous moves and plays. Factoring all the variables. If it feels right. Your cards are irrelevant at this point. Push him off the pot regardless of your cards. Just my opinion. Worst case: You improve your Reading Skills and continue to Improve your game. Good luck |

| I think this is a totally must read situation. Depends what kind of player he is. If you don't have a read on him, well, I think you should always fold this with a 1.5 pot raise. Too much to risk if he hit something. Anyway, apart from that, I think this hand was played badly from the start, although it was theoretical, i'll give it that :P |
