Re: Wouldn\'t it be fair.....
One concept that a lot of people miss with regards to hand strength is that most hands don't go to showdown. If some guy calls you in LP with QTs you are a pretty big favorite but when the flop comes J83 with a flush draw for him he's going to end up taking it down more often than you will.
You want to raise PF when you have a good chance of winning post flop, and a huge part of that is position. Bloating up a pot that you are unlikely to be able to win without seeing a very cheap showdown when you are OOP is pretty bad practice.
