so the bb defends more, and the sb 3bets more. now we want to raise more hands into these guys?

Yes, because we need to play enough hands to not get run over and I'd rather play them on the button than in the blinds. Do you disagree? I don't think you guys understand what I said or I said it poorly. We need to find hands to play somewhere, would you rather be in position or out of position? If the answer is you will defend your blinds a whole lot more and play tight on the button, fine, but please explain that argument to me because I just don't understand it.

But you need to look at your button hands in a vacuum. You can't say, "well I need to find someplace to play hands in the 3 handed game so it might as well be the button." All that matters is the profitability of certain hands when you open on the button with them. I with others who think that the range should be tighter if anything because players tend to play way too many hands out of the blinds 3 handed. Exploiting that weakness means playing a stronger set of hands.
