Whats your general plan after calling a minraise? are you looking to pull some plays or you just wait for good hands and fold the rest? i dont have crev to analyze this thing but can anyone explain me the math behind it? how much active do we have to be when we call? of course its player and board dependent but i need a general answer.

Is it enough to wait for good hands to play for stacks or hold 3 streets? is calling better than folding if you plan to do this?

Look at my cards and find out which I've been dealt.

Dont turn it into a troll thread , yes the question is a bit too general but i just try to understand the math behind why we are calling minraises so wide , we are supposed to get *odds* but dont we have to play our equity perfectly postflop? if im incapable to do that and play a very passive game , is folding better ev than calling with some part of my range?

Serious answer: a common misconception is that you have to "make a lot of moves" to justify calling minraises wide. That isn't true. You get better odds, lose less when you call pre + fold post, therefore fit-or-fold play becomes less costly.
