James282's thoughts on folding Q9o to a raise in the BB:

[ QUOTE ]
Folding has an expectation of -.5 bb/hand. There is no way calling has this same negative expectation. It's very hard to wrap your mind around it unless you have looked at these things in a database, but having an expectation of -.5bb/hand is very, very difficult. Especially if you play well postflop.

In general I find James to be a great source of knowledge and insight into LHE, and I can't help but agree with him here from my own experience. Blind defense is just profitable, period.
