So heres the situation. I had just finished my grind on Carbon and was chatting with a mate who started up 1 table of 25nl 6max cash. I was tired and keen to watch him play and discuss strategy spots etc. He picked up A2o on the button and min raised to $0.50. Once I saw this it looked completely weird to me, I then asked him why he min raised, from what ive learned preflop raise sizing on a cash table should be at least 3xBB-4xBB because well, your 100bbs deep and theres room for postflop play and you're not in survival mode at all, nor do you want the blinds calling you too wide and you're unable to range them. We both debated over his play of min raising and he made some decent points. however I still disagreed. I'm no cash expert, i play 99% tourneys/sngs and havent played cash on a regular basis since before black friday hit. But does raising 2x on a cash table in any spot ever make sense? Does it matter on what stakes you're playing between pfr sizing? From my perspective it doesnt make sense at all to be min raising in any spot on a cash table 100bbs deep!
