Message: [QUOTE="Aballinamion, post: 6610536, member: 289533"] I’m not sure if I’m big fan of calling from the SB in this particular situation, because our range is capped and we would have to fold a lot of times to c-bet OOP. However, considering we are deep stacked it’s not the end of the world. I would assume that with these suited connectors, it is more profitable to be 3-betting or squeezing them preflop. I also won’t raise this dry flop under the risk of getting too much folds from villain, and being realistic, which hands we do call preflop from the SB that would check-raise a dry flop? We don’t own 99, because most of times we hit quads in this scenario we are not raising giving the fact we have 90% of all possible combos for this dry flop (996). We also don’t own TT+, for these premium pocket pairs tend to be 3-betting preflop more than flatting. KJ+, AT+ also would have 3-bet preflop and if they whiffed this flop they would be over bluffing. We don’t own much bluffs on our range, this it becomes a little weird to raise the flop. Would be raising flop if we had called preflop with 66, having hitting the Full-House? And by doing so, aren’t we turning a strong value hand into a bluff? I didn’t read the results and I won’t assume anything based on results. I’m just putting pragmatic issues that we should consider before calling preflop from the SB and by doing so we cap our range and we can’t simply raise a dry flop and expect to get calls from what? TT+? Sure, they might called it, but by raising we will get action most of times of hands that are beating us, and the vast majority of times we will get folds and more folds, thus not allowing our very strong trips to build value over worst hands, such as 77, 88, AJ, you name it.
