I have read alot about playing small pairs on here and dont agree with alot of it. last night on full tilt(before i went in tilt mode and blew up). I was dealt pocket 5's. there where 7 people at the table so i raised 2xbb. 3 poeple folded the others just called. ok we are down to 4. flop comes out 4s jh 9h. i have position so i raise again. 1 fold and 2 checks here. Now correct me if im wrong but im pegging one guy to be on a flush draw and the other to have 2 higher unpaired pocket cards or he would have raised me. turn is 10c i raise again guy with flush draw folds other just checks. river 4c i come out betting again last person calls. I check win pot with pair of 5's. would there be any point of re raising here was just checking right or should i have raised thinking i had this guy beat. I think you have to play these small pocket pairs aggressively at least till you see the flop if you get a set great if you get crap then raise and see what youre oppents do. stay aggressive see how many fold to youre bet and go from there
