Default Re: (razz) too aggressive with 65 against strong board?

Even sklansky recommends slowplaying occaisonally on 3rd with a hand like this. My 3rd stats are something like 22/14 so it's not like I don't raise almost every time I come in. But I do agree that raising is the right thing to do with this hand almost every time.

Possibly I should raise 4th but I fear all that does is get me heads up against a guy who's got me dominated with no suckers to help me pay for being 2nd place.

5th I think is a clear bet especially if there's any chance he's paired - I don't think he's going to draw to 9 high.

6th I'm still so unsure of. I definitely intended to checkraise but that means I must have been sure he would bet which means I know he's not paired and he's probably got a good hand. I don't want this street to check through because I'm certain he has a hand that's worth calling 6th. I was almost 100% sure he would bet and I was surprised he didn't 3bet. Yet I liked my hand.
