Blindstealing...
BB seems pretty tight, SB seems like a fairly loose but straightforward (bets TP, etc.)
Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (8 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is Button with 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. CO posts a blind of $2. <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, CO (poster) checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO folds. Flop: (6 SB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, SB folds.

Re: Blindstealing...
I may play too tentatively in these situations, but I usually don't try to steal blinds with low suited connectors unless I the blinds are extraordinarily tight. These hands play so poorly heads up that I feel like I have to be fairly sure that I will win the hand before the flop. Having the poster makes it even more likely that we will get called here, although it makes the initial pot bigger.
Easy flop bet. |

Re: Blindstealing...
I don't think 45s is good enough for stealing, especially with somebody already posting.

Re: Blindstealing...
It's like trying to steal against two BB's. There's a better chance that one of them makes a hand against you and plays back. The extra BB that is posted isn't worth the tradeoff IMO.
45s just isn't good enough for stealing anyway unless you have a read on the blinds as very passive. |
