Re: blind steal gone wrong - comments?
While I agree with the consensus that the blinds aren't really worth stealing, but there is value in having the lead in a pot with a disguised hand. I'd probably rather these be suited to have a greater chance of having a good semi-bluffing hand on the flop, but other than that, there are many times the BB doesn't go all in and a continuation bet takes a nice pot. Or other times when a big stack smooth calls with TT or JJ and the 7 is a 5 and you double up through a very suprised and now tilty player. Certainly, not a move to be made too often, but I disagree with some of the comments that this play has no value.
