      Hi.

      Raise larger preflop. Minraising only makes more sense vs tighter opponents who tend to 3b a lot.

      These guys seem passive so 3x is more optimal.

      As played i think u can bet fold the turn. I expect him to have a stronger made hand most of the time

      1)This is nl2, and we have 3 hands from the guy. I mean, hard to fold 2p.

      2) I thought minraising from BU is standard if I have a very wide opening range from there. I still steal the same amount if I steal, but if I get called, I invested less with a weak hand.
      I get your point, that vs 8% restealers minraising is also good, BUT isnt it enough if I open very-very wide?

      Minraising makes more sense when u still have a lot of fold equity and also if he 3bets a lot so we lose less money..

      Raising larger is better so he folds pre more often and if he plays weak on the flop and folds often to cbetd, then raising larger pre benefits us more.

      While this is nl2 im inclined to think that his turn checkpush line is twopairs or better. When a passive player shows so much strength we shuldnt stick around too much.
