why suited aces? do you think domination isn't too important (you may be correct)?

and its not like it matters if you flop a draw and push - better fds fold anyway. so suit doesn't really matter here imo (you don't flop a draw that often) and even if it is, having the nut draw as opposed to the nut low draw has like a 1% equity difference

I'm one of these 35/25s, and I do have trouble when I get played back at. I'm not always sure what kinds of adjustments to make, other than becoming at 25/12.

Advice/Thoughts?

Grunch,

are you sure that you're getting played back at? I bet they usually play back at you with strong cards. If you're truly getting played back at, perhaps your style is no longer optimal for table conditions. You know the old cliche, play tight when they're loose. Or change tables if you're worried about $/hr more than bb/hr.

This is completely false.

When your overcard outs are good, it's a huge equity increase.

Suited aces also make it 1/2 as likely that he has AA.
