OK let's take 78s. A larger stack raises(3.5BB), you both have 100BB+. You're obviously going to call this in position

[/ QUOTE ]

I don't. Re-raise or fold for me, unless stacks are deep.

There's a 5/10 rule for PP and a 3/8 rule for sc's.

Neither of them are really that worthwhile.

make sure they're suited first of all. in the op it just says "connectors". small "connectors" should rarely if ever be played.

45s+ i call a minraise in position, dump to anything else unless i have a soecific reason to be in the hand. i'm not calling 4bb vs a tag with 67s. oop always fold unless its a family pot and oyu are in the blinds.
