What's your move against a 15/5?

What about against an unknown player?

Call, see a flop, re-assess. Treat an unknown just like a 15/5 till u have a read.
Against a 35+, reraise preflop

[Greedo017]

probably just call. reraise sometimes but it depends a bit on table conditions and how the guy has been playing, i think at 100nl you have to be more selective with reraising.

Against a 35+, reraise preflop

I think against a really loose/bad player, the type of loose you see at 100nl rather than the loose you'd see at 600nl, it is a double edged sword. Your range is much better than theirs, but you have much much less fold equity and can really get yourself in some tough spots if you miss on the flop.

This is terrible reasoning unless you suck post flop. You should be able to understand a LAG opponents way of playing post flop and then not get outplayed. Always reraise AK against loose opponents and also against tight opponents unless they are extremely nitty like 3% PFR, then you can just fold instead.

I often reraise and fairly often call in position. Its actually a pretty contradictory situation as I see it.

On the one hand you have the argument that says when you are in position you dont mind playing a large pot so a raise is pretty good .
On the other hand you can say OOP youd rather he folded and you get the hand over now so you raise.

In position you dont mind if you both see a flop so a call is fine and OOP you dont want to play a big pot against a tightish player with just 2 offsuit broadways when you are going to miss 2/3 of the flops so you just call...

hmmm I wonder which wins. Either way I raise alot in position
