I'm not sure about the old min-raise, so I'm really hoping M2M elaborates on this point. For example, if I'm sitting on the big blind holding 68s, I'm calling a min raise all day long, but anything over a min raise and it's villain dependent. I don't see what difference it makes what level we're at, I'm influenced by the pot odds, not the monetry value of a big blind. I understand why we raise higher at lower levels, since fish are calling larger raises with a wider range, but I'm rarely min-raising since I don't want the bb to be priced in to see a flop, I want him to make a mistake by calling the larger raise. Maybe calling 68s on the bb to a min raise is a mistake, in which case min raising would make sense, since it will encourage more mistakes from villains. I'm just not convinced calling 86s or 43s etc to a min raise on the bb is a mistake. I don't think I need to worry too much about this just yet though, but I'm curious.
