Min raising/re raising is horrible in virtually any situation. Very Fishy and only poor players I see doing it

I see it all the time and it"s alway the worst players that do it. They have no inception of pot size or what your bet means.  Saying that it can be used to your advantage. Many a time I"ve bet (example) 400 into a 900 pot with an open ended straight draw or flush draw against certain opponents knowing that they"ll only min raise me with a top pair type hand or flat call a medium pair or hit the board.

And when I have a strong hand and re raise I always bet more as I like to think if they call a min raise they"ll call a 2.5 > 3.5x raise to get value

i spose if you only ever open hands for value and never steal then raising bigger is better. But that is just plain boring

George2Loose:
The biggest online players min raise pre I imagine they"re quite profitable too.

Run better imo

Against weak tight blinds who fold often, min raising from co & btn is compulsory and super profitable.
