Re: what level of deepness does set-mining (w/ 22-55) become too dangerous
Ciaffone and Reuben's book on Pot-Limit and No Limit Hold 'em has a section about this topic in which they advocate folding small pairs, like 22-55, in early position for extact the reasons you describe.
I don't know that they're ever bad to play if you have position and you have a feel for the guy(s) betting out in front of you. But, OOP, clearly they felt that the limits they were playing in the games described in that book warrant an EP open fold with these hands.
I don't have the book with me right now. Anybody have a copy of that book to say what kinds of stacks they were talking about?
