This to Alon Ipser and above:
3X BB preflop is the standard raise, promoted by Gordon, Greenstein and others, as a consistent raise that cannot be read. Harrington DOES NOT subscribe to this; he will go into details about your reasoning behind raise size (it is variable, anything from a probe bet of 10% of the pot to C bet of 50% to all-in)... it is dependent on previous actions, people left to act, their styes, your position in the tourney (M value in Book 2), and your cards.
He does not teach formulas so much, rather helps you understand the factors to take into account when deciding how to size a bet, or raise.
Excellent stuff!! Keep reading!!
