Re: Folded to me in SB. Raise J8o Correct? (1/2)
J8o doesn't have an equity edge over a random hand (maybe like 1%). So why put in bets when we don't have to out of postion.

Re: Folded to me in SB. Raise J8o Correct? (1/2)
I think it's totally read dependent, so it's hard to say to raise it up against an unknown. I would never say never.
I disagree with those who say to NEVER complete here. Again, I think it's read-dependent, and against some players a steal works better when you just complete and bet the flop. Maybe some guys get more aggressive when they think you're trying to steal, and are more willing to play back at you after the flop.

Re: Folded to me in SB. Raise J8o Correct? (1/2)
I have recently been raising here with this hand. Maybe that is too weak, J9 or JT I do for sure. But I think J8 hits alot of flops, so I like a raise here pf.
anyone else?

against an unknown i don't. tight: i raise passive: i complete aggressive: i fold. [/ QUOTE ] These guidelines sound good, @bs. But what would be your preferred action against the unknown player ... complete or fold? I don't generally like to limp in when first to act at 1/2.

Re: Folded to me in SB. Raise J8o Correct? (1/2)
well sounds like there are some that disagree with completing, so take this for what it's worth....
i like to punish people for simply completing in the SB (even in CO and Button) here because i'll fold a lot of people if not right away, on the flop a lot of the time. HOWEVER, people generally speaking @ 1/2 look at 2 things: the 2 cards in front of them. they're just happy to be able to see a flop cheapily and will only raise here with a strong hand. so unless i've seen some aggression preflop, i complete here because they'll call with almost any 2 cards, but won't "punish" you for simply completing.
