Fold both preflop and bet/fold turn in the 33 situation because I feel like giving a 6-10 outter a free card when he is potentially folding if we bet is a disaster.

Folding is standard but it isn't off the map to three bet either of those hands.

Peter Rus had a 2+2 mag. article back in the spring about playing these small pair in just the way ggbman's friend recommends; isolate, jam and represent. If I remember the advice in the Fromm DVD correctly he is advocating isolating with position with just these sorts of hands.

Its a bad idea to overuse this play or make it standard to three bet any pair, but if done in spots Gabe's friend's advice isn't all that out of line, plus it will really change the complexion of a game once you get caught.
