Default I don\'t get SSNL players (NC)

How/why does a player who later turns out to be 10/4/1.33 defend his SB with A8o to a 6xBB raise?

I'm not upset about losing the hand (KK)

I just don't understand the reasoning. He kept saying things like, "Ace high is a favorite heads up against most hands"

You'd think A8o and greater hands would make up more than 10% of the hands he received, yet he chose not to play them then.

Was it because I attacked his small blind (from the big blind by the way)?????

Because he just came over from limit, or SNGs, and he thinks blind defense is what it's all about?

What are you stats? 73/25/4? If so, I would have probably re-raised you.

Don't forget to think about how your opponents perceive you. In 6 max, if you don't occasionally defend your blind you will get run over on 1/3 of the hands.
