| I think i am getting pushed around in my big blinds. What are the weakest hands that you guys think should call a raise or even re-raise a player in steal position. Or is this more a matter of feel for the oponnent. Also, from the small blind in a loose passive game with no raise should i basically call with any thing. THANKS | ||

I generally steal with any ace, KT or better, suited connectors...pretty much anything that has a reasonable chance of winning. I defend to a steal with any king, usually. It really does depend a huge amount on the stealer, your table image, etc. I resteal with AT or better generally and I slowplay KK AA and AK to a steal. | ||

| I would say that if you feel comfortable that you can outplay the potential blind stealer, you should be more inclined to play marginal holdings against him, and reraise with more marginal and good hands. If he is a tougher opponent, fold all but your better hands, and three bet those. As for calling out of the small blind in loose passive games, I would certainly call more than in a typical game, but still throw away complete rags. This would also depend on your particular games blind structure. GOOD LUCK! | ||
