In simple terms you will win LESS times (if everyone calls) but you will win MORE money from them. Does this make sense?

yeah i can see that I will win less times, possibly because of this (I just realized my first mistake: What .05/.10 fish cares about pot odds???) but also that when I do win, it'll be 7 times more than if I got the pot heads up (preferable for aces most of the time). Aces good 1 in 7? you betcha.

Ugh, have you been reading crap like this?

no, that article is useless. That's much more weak/tight than what I was trying to get at I think. That guy wouldn't open-raise with JJ in MP3, because it'll give the guy in the big blind with A4 pot-odds to call (if theres a few callers) for the gutshot straight or 3 ace-out draws...

I raise T9s on the button in your given situation, or any pocket pair. Discuss.

I agree. But that`s something that does not belong in this topic as you actually want people in with a hand like this. You welcome draws with t9s whereas you want to eliminate drawing hands with aa when the pot has gotten huge.

Ok, this is a problem I encounter a few times each session. I am either the button or the cutoff (maybe even a blind...where in fact this question applies even more because of the positional problems that arise) and i get dealt: AA KK QQ JJ or AK, AQ. Of the 6 or 7 people who acted in front of me, 4, 5 or even 6 of them called! Most of them probably have A3o, K6s, J9, the under the gun player has 76o, etc. We're talking 5 piddly cents here (not half a bet, not to these guys)

I want to raise. I SHOULD raise. However, the problem is that some of these, and yes i'll call them, fish/idiots who called with 57o in UTG+1, are going to flop a gutshot. Others will flop 3 to a flush, etc. Good, these guys are gonna be drawing against me and the majority of the time, they will be shoveling me their money. BUT...If I raise before the flop, and nobody but the small blinds fold (common ), there will be as many as 7, 8, or 9 BB in that pot on the flop. I'm making it CORRECT for the fish to call now!

Let those fish pay to see that the flop misses them.

The point is that they're already in, you're not raising to fold them out, they'll all call the raise.
