Small blind is a pisser

[nutbag]

Getting in late from the original post. From the frist part I completely agree with TP about sb seeing a bunch but giving up almost all of them post.

While for the part you asked about defending blinds. I hate defending in the Sb, you're always out of position, and unless you hit something big, It's tough to take the lead in the hand. Persoanlly, I used to end up in way to many, Call, hit pair, checkraise, then you bet and get raised again. Besides premium hands, It think it's really difficult to play other hands profitably from the sb. Plus I'm just not good enough to lay down hands when I hit a pair but still run into aggression, so I try to avoid the situation with marginal hands instead of playing them.
