Agressive Play - The re-raise or the hammer

[Fonzi]

For this lesson we're using No Limit Holdem

When you re-raise you're saying "You can't beat my hand".


Because there's no limit to the amount you can bet, a big re-raise at any stage is sometimes the best play.

If you're going to be re-raising in No Limit, you want to be going big. Don't just make a small raise. The bet should be at least as big as the pot. This is obviously a big play, and you need to be very confident in your hand or your bluff.


But in summary, be very sure what you're doing when you re-raise.
