55 tight passive table?

raise/fold- if they play tight postflop, I lean more towards raise. I think of stealing equity as more than just how often you steal the blinds, as if they fold a lot of flops, even if they are calling a lot preflop I still push it preflop.

I like the open raise for the tight passive tables. I also like your avatar...I think Big Mountain when I see it, but I am probably wrong...
