Re: Awkward blind steal with T8s and loose image
I think it's a fine post. For me, T8s just doesn't have enough high card strengf to steal with although I'm sure there are those who will disagree. I want some showdown value.
I think there's an argument (albeit maybe a weak one) for 3-betting the turn. I think AJ 3-bets your obvious steal preflop given your read on BB. Probably AT too. Especially given that you've been picking on his blind all session with cheese. And your hand is still pretty strong.
As for the river, I think you might be able to make an argument there for raising and folding to a 3-bet, maybe? I think this works even better against a TAG who's capable of making folds. Against a thinking TAG who's in blind-defense-mode, his range of hands could be rather large.
I need to get better in situations like this too, so I'm interested in hearing comments.
