Default Re: Quick preflop decision

the hand example was actually 99, but I thin kthis has actually been discussed before. a bunch of posters (including me) disagreed with the logic behind it, and in essence, the play they speak about works better w/o looking at your hand since the "beauty" of the play is that reraising a loose raiser -> betting big on the flop is +EV. It's just here with a small pair, potentially calling and stacking him off is >+EV.

My problem with calling is that 88 is a premium hand. I'm ahead of him more times than not, especially on the flop. I don't think I'd mind getting all-in on most flops.
