Default Re: Sometimes I hate 8-way action.

I never raise TT or JJ preflop in multi-way pots. Sklansky elaborates on this HPFAP.

Without looking at the book IIRC he was referring to UTG raises in semi-loose games where a raise will cause 3 people to see the flop on average. Totally different situation. You're only a little worse than 7:1 to flop a set so with 7 opponents a raise with any pair seems like about even money, no? Therefore a raise with a group 2 pair which still likes a flop of undercards is surely +EV.
