Default Re: way too common spot: tpnk from bb

Specifically here with SB leading into us with a probable 8, very weak Ace or flush draw I feel I can raise pot- This makes it very hard for MP,CO, or button to call with their A9,AT facing a raise and reraise and they have AJ+ almost never.

I think this hand is much harder to play if SB checks into us, but even there I prefer leading and letting them decide if A9 or A5 is good, because sometimes they'll make the wrong decision, and sometimes I'll have A8, A3 or a set, and I want action there. Check-calling just gets you in trouble.
