Backraise ()

A backraise is a reraise following a call.

Example:

Player A bets

Player B calls

Player C raises

Player A calls

Player B raises -> he makes a backraise, since he called the first raise and the reraised C's raise.

A special form of the backraise is the limp-raise. In games with blinds, calling the blinds is called limping. Hence, limping then reraising a following raise is called a limp-raise.
