Title: Re: WSOP Blog now finished.... Post by: M3boy on August 16, 2006, 05:08:26 PM UTG can double the Big Blind - This is another Blind Bet, but then has the option of raising BEFORE the flop.
Example (and this DID happen) SB $1 BB $2 Me (UTG) straddle $4 (blind) all in all 7 callers of $4 Preflop my option and I riase $25 (still blind) 4 callers Flop comes I bet $50 (still blind) 2 callers Turn card comes I move all in (still blind) They fold and I win a $200+ pot :) Title: Re: WSOP Blog now finished....
