One thing i've noticed since I started focusing on my game more is a specific situation that occurs when your holding a bighand preflop and want action. For example we'll use AA UTG to explain. If you are holding 2k in chips currently with blinds 50/100, and there is shorter stack at the table who is likely to push over top of a preflop raise all in you need to size your bet properly to make a reraise if they do so. I see so many times with other players and myself sometimes where you make too big of a raise preflop but small enough that you get mulitple callers and when the short stack shoves its not enough over the top to allow a reraise. Basically you've most likely sentenced your AA to death and commited yourself to the hand to bust. Whereas if you made the correct size raise to allow a reraise if they shove you allow yourself to protect your hand properly. I'm sure that could of been worded a heck of a lot better, but does anyone else agree?
