Default Re: Too aggro 3rd/4th?

As Andy said, the advice in 7CSFAP is relevant primarily in higher ante games where the starting pot is more worth protecting, and where players do a lot of raising on 3rd street with high doorcards when they don't have the pair they're representing.

Given this structure, I'd either call or fold on 3rd, but folding might be the right play given the raiser's position. The 4th street raise only has value as a free card play, since it's highly unlikely that your hand is best. However, since it probably wouldn't be correct to call a bet on 5th street unimproved, I think this is a losing play.
