Default Re: Question: ATo in the BB

You should be throwing this hand away most of the time when facing a raise. It is dominated by all the typical raising hands, and has very little drawing potential. The only time I would consider playing this hand from the BB to a raise is if I'm defending against a steal raise, or if there was one or two very loose limpers and an aggressive raiser in late position. If this was the case, then it would be common for you to be holding the best hand preflop. You should be mucking AJo and KQo as well, unless the pot is multiway. Texas hold'em is all about position, and even a discounted price from the blinds isn't as good as it seems because of this.
