Default Re: my new bad habit: getting passive in position

What's your logic behind this post?

Well, for a more aggro opponent, they could be betting a lot there. Any pair, a draw, monsters, Uno cards, who knows. Maybe some of that they would checkraise with, but who would they be checkraising? So why would you want to give him the chance to get off the hook with a worse hand, while 3-betting you with hands that beat you?

Passive opponents are... well... passive. They typically do not bet, so it is some kind of odd event when they do. From my experience, this usually means some kind of solid pair (usually top pair) or better.

I guess my point here is that there are a lot of lines one could take here, but a lot of them are read-dependent.
