I think pairs <77 are great raising/reraising hands from the blinds as they play so easily (usually) post flop and mask the times you have a big hand. Sets in unraised pots have the ghey.

Single raised pot <> Unraised pot, we are not talking about limping obv.

I am actually of the direct opposite opinion, that low pairs are not good hands to 3-bet with from the blinds in general and are much more inclined doing it with hands like AT, KQ and such if someone opens from CO or button.

Hmmm I'm in the school of thought that KQ and AT etc. can get us into a lot of trouble (classic reverse implieds) when the opponent chooses to put big bets in. Although I'm very open to suggestions as to why this is better.

Why do you think SPs are bad hands to do this with?
