pineapple888, don`t you think that min. raising 66 there gives to much info away ? People could put you on a small pp everytime you only min raise there.

Regarding 67s your completely right. I said call earlier, but with BB still behind to call and being out out position against 2 players your right. Turbo-Muck

Regarding the minraise, it's read-dependent, and I change it up (std. raise sometimes w PP, minraise sometimes with other hands). I use it mostly on a loose passive table where a std raise followed by cbet is not all that likely to succeed, but they are happy to pay off my set if I hit.

Regarding 76s, we are in absolute position on the button, although we could end up in poor relative position if the blinds come along. But the real problem is I don't like playing these low suited connectors to a raise with only 100BB, we are on the a$$-end of hands too often and it's too easy to get pot-committed. Double the stacks, giving us room to play and increasing the implied odds for when we do hit hard, and I call pretty fast.
