Default Re: pocket 3\'s in the SB

Why are you min. raising? Make it 175 to go and steal the blinds. What are you doing calling? You will be enough of a dog enough times here to lay this down comfortably. If you had led out for 175-200, then this decision would've been harder.

I just realized you misclicked by raising the min. So I guess I can't harass you for that, but your call is not good. If you are an underpair to your opponent here only a small amount of the time, you are messing up.

Raise more, fold unless you are getting much better than 2:1 (you are getting less than 2:1 on your call), 3:1 is preferred... When calling the SS all-in with a low pocket.

That's where I'm weak -- I'm never sure what to do in response to a re-raise and I'm afraid I'll get run over if I keep folding to re-raises. I think I'm trying to hard to play "image" poker and not enough smart poker.

Thanks.
