Default Re: SSHE is the nuts!

I'm now learning to adjust to online tag play. Passive players would allow you to draw to a five outer in comfort. Todays online players are not so kind. Often times when I raise with middle pair to buy outs/protect my hand in a large pot I am 3 bet and led into on the turn. Which is a nightmare. I'm now reading holdem for advanced players. But struggle with some concepts like not raising pocket jacks/Aqo in a multi way pot. SSHE says RAISE FOR VALUE, RAISE FOR VALUE, or else you suck at poker. Where as HPFAP says just call and hope you flop a set. Why not raise for value here also? SSHE has also left my heads up play weak. I often feel lost with a hand like overcards or middle pair. I bet they raise, or I get check raised. And I'm left wondering do they know I"m full of [censored] or do they have a hand. Anyway just my personal struggle. I have still managed to maintain a 2bb100 winrate online and of course I destroy live games up to 15-30.
