do you do this as your default against unknowns? what if they turn out to be a post-flop flush draw maniac or goes crazy with low pocket pairs on paired flops? we only have one overcard to worry about here so i dont really feel our hand is vulnerable. even with hearts we can hit a fat Q of hearts and destroy this guy. if villain checks on the turn or river ill be happy to fire but until then i dont mind being a calling station. am i missing something here that is keeping me from playing 4k/8k with doyle?

I understand that the prospect of an unknown going nutso with a flush draw or a 5x hand is a possibility, but if he is truly that aggressive than he earned this pot from me and I will find better spots against him later.

I just think the missed value, protection, deception, and unreadability is more important. Keep in mind I play a higher limit but I like responding to hands in all forums. You can decide for yourself if the pros of raising that I'm pushing are valuable at this limit.
