Recently i read about calling a raise with small PP according to the 'call 20' rule: you and your opponent must have at least 20 times the raise amount behind. How you think about this rule and does this change when there are multiple opponents in the pot?
Thx
I think most people take 15 as a general min stack for set mining. Its basically because if you follow 8 to1 rule, u are not going to stack your opp. always when you hit ur set, so taking that into acc. 15 is a good number.Multiple opponents has got to take into account your position, if you are closing the action then set mining is good. but if your are in MP then you have to take into account the cooler situation(set over set)+ someone squeezing you out.
