Default Re: Defending your BB in Limit

I am not a respected poster, but smart enough to notice that this sentence is pure crap. Take 72o as example. Let's say I decide to fold it 99% of the time, but against that weak-tight button who attempts to steal blinds with 80% of his hands and then play weak-tight postflop, I 3-bet it preflop and it is a +EV-play. Guess what, I am losing less than 1BB on average on than hand from BB [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img].

EDIT: It is even stupider. If I click check/fold on every hand from the BB and almost always check/fold postflop, I will end up losing less than 1BB on average since sometimes it will be folded around and sometimes I will flop a monster.
