Why Raise with Suited Connectors? (NLHE)

[paddymcg21]

The main reason I would raise with suited connectors is for the chance to win a very big pot against an aggressive player. For example raising with 7d 8d will either hit something good and win money or completely miss and is easy to get away from. If the flop comes 5d 6s 2d (obv this is a nice flop that wont happen too often) Your aggressive opponent is most probably not in the mood to fold to your bet on a flop that really looks about as threatening as Robbie Savage. Also if you show down your 7d 8d, players will know that your more than just a 1 trick pony and are capable of mixing it up. All this may sound obvious but surely one of the key things for any poker player is to be difficult to read. If you only play premium hands then surely you're easier to play against no??
