I'd be tempted to alter my raise on POSITION if anything, I just don't see where the gain comes from, if you raise the same with any raising hand you disguise your holding well enough as it is imo :/

its a valid opinion, and many people feel the same way, but this applies to ONLINE mtts and sngs ASWELL as LIVE mtts and sngs....

With both you are playing the same people for hours at a time, and ALL good players observe their opponents. As much as you might not want to believe it, people will cantch onto yoour single "standard raise" and it wont work as good. If you change it up and raise different sizes with different hands, and flip it around occasionally, it works much better in my point of view. And not many people say it hurts their game.

Do you agree with that? Id just like to know your opinion on it. Im here to help people, but i can also learn.
