Other things are never equal. If you are facing opponents who frequently limp with mediocre hands, you might want to raise larger from the big blind in order to avoid facing a bunch of random hands, unless they are calling stations in which case you may want to raise smaller to get them to come along all the way when they are dominated, etc. The point is I don't see how you can argue raise sizes from any position in a vacuum. If your opponents fold to big late position raises but call small ones, you'll raise big when you want them to fold and small when you want to play a pot, and so on ad infinitum. Don't think there can be a hard and fast rule here. Clearly you want to be playing more and bigger pots in position than out of position, but how to achieve that will vary from table to table.Craig Bergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06895405601179743376noreply@blogger.com
