Default Re: Preflop AA or KK in the blinds

You shouldn't raise all your pairs. You're only getting 8:1 on your raise. You need to get about 10:1 to turn a profit, and the raise cuts your implied odds in half.

You don't need much in implied odds when you're getting 8-1. You hit a set, your overlay is alot more than 10-1.

This is why you can pretty much see any flop with any pair getting 5-1 with at least 2 players in. (ie...raise with coldcaller and you're in BB.)
