Re: Question on cold calling preflop
The reason why that there isn't much difference between TT and JJ but one is worth a 3-bet and the other is a fold, is because I strongly believe that you should almost never call a raise. You should reraise or fold. The only exceptions are drawing hands like medium pairs and medium suited connectors in multiway pots. I know Clarkmeister disagrees with this, but all I can say is it's working for me (the medium pairs and medium suited connectors). These hands though I get away from very quickly if I don't catch a big part of the flop. Basically I fold them unless I flop a set, a four flush, or an oesd. Or better, flopping a straight is of course excellent [img]/forums/images/icons/cool.gif[/img] (doesn't happen often though). You can win really big pots this way.
