Okay.. I don't really understand how 3 betting LESS than a standard 3 bet amount makes pocket pairs pay MORE to set mine. If BB just flats you create a multiway pot OOP with a TPTK type of hand. Weak aces are often in opening ranges at these limits, so I don't see why you wouldn't raise more preflop to make them pay to hit their 3 outer. You'll make a lot when you have a better kicker than them, but the A, (or K if he's opening really weak hands) will not flop very often because there will be only 2 left in the deck. Okay, if you want the BB to call it and try to hit 2 pair, don't you realize that if they hit ONE pair their hand will usually be ahead of yours? If you want to play a passive preflop game and just value bet your hands after you hit them, why are you advocating raising less instead of just calling? Does raising really make the BB more likely to raise than if you just called? Sorry that I don't understand why 3 betting less than 2x his raise is the correct play.
