Default Re: The Gap Concept?

I've seen it phrased like this:

If you're in late position, to call a raise from middle position, you need a hand that you would open raise with in early position.

In reality, it's not that simple. Your greatest fear is domination, so frequently dominated hands like KQ, KJ, QJ will fall a lot in value, while TT, JJ don't lose as much value since the high pairs are not as common as AK, AQ, AJ.
The low pairs that you play for set value hardly lose value at all.
