Re: Different styles for BB defens
Absolutely. I was going to suggest that the CR is a good line when your opponent is likely drawing to just 1 overcard. If your opponent is likely to raise your flop bet, you could also argue that a bet-3-bet line is better when he has only 1 card to draw to. A more pasive opponent you should CR, more aggressive go for the 3-bet.
These spots require good judgement of opponent and consideration of the board.
With regard to the CR, as cartman says, it may make playing the rest of the hand easier. If opponent takes it seriously and only raises the Turn after a CR when you are seriously beat then it helps a lot and saves 1 SB when you are behind or drawn out on the Turn.
