Default Re: Too thin? 10/20 river raise/fold

[ QUOTE ]
adam, I haven't yet been convinced that the increased folding equity you gain from raising any 2 preflop makes raising any 2 good. Maybe you can convince me. It just seems that you have a ton of folding equity already when they check to you (which they do fairly often in my experience). Raising pre makes the pot bigger which gives them more incentive to continue or to play back at you. It seems to me that even the lags sometimes are like "whatever just take it" when they complete in sb preflop.

I totally agree with this. Raising any two pre-flop here does not makes sense to me.

FWIW, I open limp occasionally from the SB and think that in the right spots limping, instead of raising, increases my FE on the flop.
