Default Re: $109s - Stupid Resteal

I think you need something along the lines of any ace, most kings, any pair, any two broadways for this move with your stack.

I don't like being minraised to death either, but your stack in this hand is actually stronger than it seems, if you ask me.

This is something that I've been considering for a while, tell me what you think:

Your position at this table is worth a stack twice your current size if you ask me. For one thing, the big stack acts before you, which is good because you can stay out of his way and play with the other two stacks whenever the big stack lets you. Another thing that is great is the other small stack acts after you so you get to beat him in the pot on those nice profitable pushes that you'll start finding in the next few hands. Basically, what I'm saying is this:

Based on the favourable stack sizes and positions, you should err on the side of being conservative against the big stack.

Let me know what you guys think of my little theory. This may be old hat to some of you but it's something I'm paying a lot more attention to these days with great results.
