Default Contention of Snyder\'s \"Very Short\" hands

Let me first start off by saying that I read Snyder's PTF book and think it is a very good book. However, I was reviewing Snyder's "Very Short" preflop hands and I found what may be an error. He defines very short as 11-20 big blinds.

Snyder recommends you raise or reraise all-in with 77+ any two face cards, and KT. However, he doesn't mention Ax which holds up better than all of the combinations of face cards (other than pairs). If you are going to reraise all in you are usually going to be against one or two opponents and it seems to me that even A2o would be better than KQs.

Maybe this is just a lesson in taking all books advice with a grain of salt or maybe I am missing something... [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
