I made this same point in a conversation the other day and that's why I'm reraising preflop against players who raise like me. There are people in my games who are raising a much higher % preflop than I am and they do it from UTG with AceBullshit offsuit. Some strong players even LAG it up like that.

If I raise UTG with K10 and get 3-bet I'm not feeling great after that. Playing unimproved while out of position is bad news. On the contrary, I've found that against liberal raisers (I REFUSE to refer to myself as loose) I take down a lot of pots before showdown without improving. I'm thinking about expanding and making this 3-bet with A10 or at least A10s because of the shit that gets raised up front.

I've been trying to muck Q10 and QJ offsuit up front lately. I used to raise those too but I think I can muck them UTG at least. I'm a nit-picker.

I know the value of suited cards isn't regarded as that much in a 6-max game, but I don't necessarily agree.
