Default Re: Beginner\'s Strategy For Playing Blinds

if it's heads up, you (SB) and BB, BB raises, you will have the pot odds to call always. Whether you raise depends on your hand and whim.

let me clarify two things:

I'm not advocating open-completing in the SB. My mind is not made up on when to/not to.

You should have the odds to at least call whether you complete in the SB and get raised, or raise in the SB and get 3bet. I was not conisdering (very good) reads, but when you are sure you're dominated and offsuit (~19% - ~22% winning percentage after all five cards), then its a fold. Problem is it takes a very good read, because even a passive player can put raise in here for the hell of it.
