Suppose you are playing longhand (more than 6 players) no limit and are in late position (CU or BU) and nobody has raised or called before you. In that case, I would raise any pair even if I only had 22. After all, I'm in position and probably have no more than 2 opponents. No Limit lives from aggressive play in position. I can take the pot with a continuation bet (C-bet) even if I miss the flop. In the middle position I would only call with small pairs and hope for three of a kind. In early position you can also fold small pairs because you can't play them as profitably from there. Even if you hit three of a kind, you have to be paid off by your opponents first. But that's much more difficult in an early position. In shorthand no limit I would always open raise with small pairs, no matter what position. In shorthand you have to play multiple hands. It is action-packed and lives even more from aggressiveness.

I rarely raise small pairs from an early position and never stake 3 bets with them!Would u raise if you have a :deal::deal::deal::deal::dealair that is under 10
