Discussion: Reraise sizing.
An interesting concept I have come across in my game is reraise sizing, and how much you should actually vary them. Certain situation comes to mind.
1. You have AK and and a tagg raises UTG. We are Mp or Lp. You think his raising range is AJ+, 88+, and KQ. Now lets say his calling range to a 3.5x reraise is TT+, AQ+. Should we be reraising here if opp is not folding QQ-TT on low flops? Should we reraise less because of the lack of PP in his range?
2. Stacks sizes. Versus around 75BB stacks should we be reraising less or more in general when we are reraising? I can see arguements for more or less.
3. Balancing our reraising oop. We should never care to balance against laggs who are too loose in position (of course technically we are already balanced) right? Versus Lagg/Tag who are raising 30/40% on blind steals but folding to almost all reraises.
Do we balance OOP with i.e. only sc's?
4. Versus guys who are around 15 vpip and 9 pfr with tight reraising ranges, if we raise on CO and BU and 15/9 guy reraises us what is our calling range? Do we call here sometimes planning on bluffing some flops (I.E. Axx or QQx)
I'll start with this.
1. I normally "puss out" and call a lot in this situation. Recently I have been thinking maybe I should start raising a bit less than 3x. Prob a stupid idea. I really haven't had much success with standard raises.
2. Reraising more makes sense as it allows us to commit ourselves easier. Small makes sense too as he has way less implied odds. So idk
3. Versus opps with tighter calling ranges i tend to balance out with sc's.
4. Probably for me QQ-AA and AK. I maybe call with junk sometimes depending onreads.
