Default Re: Standard line, no?

I have to raise this preflop. They are all so tight that one of my edges is stealing. How do you beat a 9% vpip? For one by hammering his weak spot, the blinds. I raise much worse hands in these games from the CO, K9s is even a legitimate raise...I'll raise J8o... if the BB has a fold% over 90, which is not uncommon, I'll even raise 54 and such.

So one of these guys who normally always folds now 3 bets. This means he has a hand. Probably TT+ AJ+. So I figured to be wa/wb, planning to check/call and bet the river. If I c/r the flop I'm only going to lose more when behind. If I c/r and he 3 bets I peel and fold the turn UI. (against this tight passive player)

Also, whenever these guys have a real hand they try to c/r the turn. So there was still a good possibility he had AK or something. So I fold to the raise, he shows QQ, and I tell him no surprise, after which he doesn't believe I had a king [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
