Default Re: P.S. Why not raise preflop

i have got into the habit of not raising from the bb pre-flop unless i have a giant hand which i am almost definitely going to pursue after the flop

first, if i have something like ATs i want to "hide" its strength with certain flops, and second, almost the opposite, i don't want to announce strength then find myself "having" to bet from up front rather than perhaps make a preferable one-off check-call, if i am given only a fairish flop

what would you raise with p/f in the bb?
