Re: looking for discussion on argument against open-completing
That's interesting, Wynton. I would like to read that discussion. But let me ask you this...with two cards suited under T, like 97s, 87s, 85s, etc., if you open-raise from the SB, how do you play post flop? Auto-bet the flop? If he calls, then what? If he raises, then what? Most of the time you'll have overcard flops with at least one broadway. If you check bad flops, even passive players will bet to take it down. If you open complete, now you have the option to play or not, and you don't feel obligated to force the issue. When you flop well, you are paid off a very high %. When you don't flop well, you have no risk because you get out. If you play 1 million hands like this, imagine how often you spew verses my way where you are always betting a hand against a guy who's guaranteed to call.
Maybe I just don't know how to play 97s post flop out of position against a fish when I don't flop well.
