NLHE Foundations Course #06: Pre-Flop Ranges (Part 3)

Blinds vs LP - . OK so his calling range just destroys the range I placed him on for his 3betting. Calling range; 22-99, A2s-AJs, KJs+, Q5s-QJs, T9s, 98s, 87s, 76s, A2o-AQo, KJo+, QTo+, JTo.

@spoonitnow
Should I call with 22-77 in the blinds if someone makes a raise from the CO or BTN?
I normally tend to 3bet them or just to fold, because I don't think so that it is wort here to setmine.
However if it's a fun player or an agressive player I also call. But most people make there Cbet on the flop, but don't commit there stack when I hit my set in this particular situation because they just wanted to steal - so I feel like I don't have the implied odds to setmine with these small pocketpairs.

In my personal opinion, it's fine to fold small pairs in this type of situation, though I'm sure there are some who will disagree with me. I'd much rather call with hands like broadways, suited aces, A9-A7, etc. that can make pairs that will maintain their equity through a hand and pick off c-bets.
