Loose games: Ed Miller disagrees with HEFAP
This is on the subject of raising Big Offsuit hands (AQo, AJo, KQo) in loose games in Late Position.
HEFAP reasons that you should not raise them but limp in because your edge against, say 4 limpers, is small since hands are offsuit. And when you do flop the top pair, the pot will be large enough for many loose weak players to have their playing style (calling) coinside with correct play.
Ed Miller, I assume, reasons that since you have that little bit of edge and position, sieze your edge now and raise.
Interesting ... thoughts?
