Default NL200 | Preflop

It's a preflop question, you know you love it.

Riddle me this. BB is whovever you want it to be.

Full Tilt Poker
$1/$2 No Limit Hold'em Ring Game
5 Players
LegoPoker Hand Converter

<font color="black">Stack Sizes</font>
Hero (SB): $198.1
UTG: $203.35
MP: $344.40
CO: $259.60
BTN: $79.90

<font color="black">Preflop:</font> T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($3, 5 players)
MP folds, CO folds, BTN folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $8</font> ... ?

Why did I raise this? If I get called I'm playing a raise pot out of position with a marginal one pair hand. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Ok now lets say he's a good 2p2er. What's your action now? What if he's a maniac?

Just because he's a 2p2er doesn't mean he doesn't have J2o and will fold 99% of the time.

I agree with the guy who said we either steal the blinds enough, or win the pot w/ a C-bet, or actually flop something and win the pot somewhere along the line enough to make a raise here profitable.

Because as far as we know Villian has a totally random hand, in which case we are a favorite, and we want his $2?

I would think a lot of this depends on our image too.
