Re: 22 in the BB
Ok I agree on your description of the benefits of an aggressive player but you will also collect more bets from the aggressive player when you hit.

Re: 22 in the BB
I think you should play because against an aggressive or passive player because there is less chance of being outplayed. So you are now playing showdown poker.
Against an aggressive player you can check/call knowing a bet will go in on the flop and turn and probably the river whether you are ahead or not. Against a passive player you can bet the flop, turn and river knowing you can fold if you get raised and you don't have a set. |

Re: 22 in the BB
Unless you flop a 2, you are in trouble from the start, I have lately come to hate small pairs, learning to dump them is hard, but getting easier.
Take a look at this: http://www.twodimes.net/poker/?g=h&b...0A%0D%0A%0D%0A JT offsuite is actually a favorite over 22. Figure this simple logic too: His 2 cards, if paired, you are beat if no 2 hits, and still could be if his does. (unless he is in there with the other 2's LOL) If 5 different cards hit the board and he has 2 different cards... 6 outs with 5 cards to come... on average he will hit one of them how often? You get a str8 with your 2? well 6 would also... Problem solved for me, easy fold. I'd rather play 87s then 22, any day. 2's make for lousy bet fellows, I save my bets for better op fare, 2 outs stinks at least for me... -t |

Re: 22 in the BB
I think I might lead out on the flop and turn. If he raises the turn then I would fold.
If I played it your way I would probably fold to the raise. ~stephen |

A terse but devilishly informative statement.
