Default Re: NL Preflop Question #2

I should add that it is simply too expensive to look at the flop in this scenario (even adding all pairs down to 2-2 would not help). If it would only cost $20 to look at the flop for example, then we would only have to be a 50,3% favorite on the flop to break even!

I believe if you add the pairs down to 22 we would raise Villain all-in pre-flop since Villain will fold all pairs TT and below and never see a flop.

edit:
Nevermind - This doesn't appear to be correct now that I actually think it through. (Nice post, Mr. Sklansky) It would seem our Villain will now fold pre-flop to our all-in re-raise something like 64% of the time while holding TT or lower, but we are so crushed when he calls us that this fails to make up for it.
