Just wondering what the limit pro's thoughts are on this.SSHE and SS aside, How often do you raise preflop agianst weak tight players, in SB or BB. compared to aggressive players who do a lot of raising.?Are you check raising more against aggressive players?Are you playing less hands against an aggressive player, and waiting to extract more BB out of him/her?Just want to hear your thoughts

against agg. players I lead more into them when I have a strong hand.most agg. players will raise any pair HU and it's often better to lead into them instead of c/r.most ppl know a c/r is a show of strength and will slow down...if you lead you are given less credibility.of course, occasionally mix it up and I c/c over agg. players and then try and a, c/r them on the turn, or lead on the turn and get them to raise me there.sb i raise more often against weak players, but if he is a calling station I try and keep the pot smaller and outplay him post flop.i like playing agg against agg players so i normally push back against them. mainly cuz i'm pretty agg...but i think you beat agg. with more aggression. HU a lot of times the winner just comes down to who outdraws you early on and if you are on the wrong side of those outdraws, if you can come back...depending on how many bets you are playing with also can decipher what kinda game i'm gonna play...but for a general rule..i think if you are playing an aware agg. opponent you want to lead into him more often than not, cuz he should be weary when you check a lot of your hands with strong hands and bet when weak...mix it up obviously, but look to lead more.however, if i have position with a very strong hand, maybe trips or 2P, i will check and try and get him to bet the turn or pick something up...again, basic mix up your play thing...- Jordan
