This I don't get. In effect, if you're in position with, say QJs, and you would limp after limpers anyway because you believe you can outplay them in a multiway pot, what's wrong with doubling the bet and in effect say "lets all play, but lets double the stakes"? All the minraise does is to make the bets on later streets bigger. If you're better than they are, why is this bad?
