Default Re: I\'m back - 88 in the BB

I understand your reasoning, but I still raise the flop. I don't care much what Button has, but I care alot what SB has. Raising the flop is the most affordable way to find out in my opinion.

Although your way conveys more strength, you commit 5 small bets postflop before you get any feedback. It may cost me 4 small bets, but I may also get away for 2 small bets and I don't think your line cause SB to fold many more hands than mine does although it may cause button to fold the turn more than mine.

If SB is in fact solid I don't think he can call my flop raise and a river bet without a K or a good draw. If he 3-bets the flop or donks the turn I fold immediately. If he check calls the turn I check behind him on the river. If I get heads up with Button, great. I am showing it down then.
