I have seen the min raise used effectively once. The guy that won the UB million freeroll a few months ago used it to finish of the last 4 players.
 
   He min raised every pot he played which were most of the hands dealt. The players either dumped the blinds and folded or called with marginal hands and folded to his next bet all in. The one that called was buried to a pair of flopped 6s. The guy frustrated the others to make bad decisions, the last 2 went all in after his min raise and he turned over monsters both times.
 
  The blinds were huge at that point and do to noone challenging his min raises early they all found themselves as 5-10 times underdogs to him.
 
  The only time I ever use the min raise is if in a middle to late position where there is less than 4 -5 players to act. I only do this with AA or KK as I want a reraise with full intent to put them all in. Usually only one or maube 2 of the remaining players will call or reraise which allows my hand to remain in a dominant position preflop.
 
   As many of you know the more hands in before the flop the lower the winning percentage all hands receive. Even aces can dip several percentage points below 50% as a strong hand.
 
   Usually I limp or min raise late hoping to get a raise to me so that I may force bigger action or hold a better position after the flop and set the pace.
