Default there is no standard

By playing "by the book" a standard raise will get everyone folding as planned.
However, with the influx of nubies to the game of internet poker, the standard will more than likely get a call.

There is nothing standard about playing poker. We are not machines in a factory producing winning hands. (Although, we try to grind it out every time).

Every table has a particular feel, and like every women, we play it the way that works best, while somedays we don't play at all.

AA - ALL IN BABY - I am tired of getting beat on this hand.( but that's poker, as we all know).

Your comments are appreciated! You are welcome to raise, but limping and ALL in work good too. It depends as we all know.

To standardize poker play will surely get you into trouble.
