Default Re: Profitability of calling large raises with small pocket pairs?

[ QUOTE ]
My point is that you can't say, Well I "THINK" this guy is continuation betting so I'm going to raise him with my 22.

[/ QUOTE ]
Sure I can.

[ QUOTE ]
I'd love it if some idiot raised my flop bets with an underpair...

[/ QUOTE ]
No you wouldn't. You would fold all sorts of hands to that raise.

Thats why I said this is a read dependent play-- and people don't call large PF raises with small PP's with the intention to snap off continuation bets from an unknown.

[/ QUOTE ]
As far as I've seen, this is the first time you've mentioned anything about reads.

You knew what I was trying to say but you still felt inclined to ignore what I was saying completely.

I knew what you were trying to say, but I felt inclined to disagree with you, because you're wrong.

[ QUOTE ]
I am only talking about the implied odds of hitting a set , and if the implied odds make the call profitable.

[/ QUOTE ]
They do, and part of those implied odds is your ability to play well post flop.

But seriously... get better at poker.
