PS 2/4 Blind Defense?
I had been playing extremely tight up to this point and had been giving up my blind a lot to Button's PF raises. .once the SB just called I decided to try and steal. Thoughts?

Why did you try to steal because the SB called? Bluffing 1 player = higher % chance to work than bluffing 2. [/ QUOTE ] actually it makes it look less like a steal due to the fact that the SB called.

The SB's call is a lot like putting dead money in the pot, letting you win more if your bluff is successful. If the button regularly steals, this is a nice play. Just dont do it too often.
