T8s vs Reg, When flop 3-bets get flatted.

[Toadstool]

T8s is part of a "narrow" UTG? Please explain how OP isn't getting OWNED when he uses this sizing pre-flop unless there is some horribad loose player behind us.

Statements like this can never really be true, as so many other factors go into it. How you play postflop will dictate whether it's going to be profitable to raise 10 8s UTG here, also if you think you are going to get owned by some guy flatting every one of your opens or 3 betting you chronically, just adapt. If you think he is attempting to exploit you, then he is going to be playing exploitably as well - which is good for you if you know how to re-exploit him. Postflop play is so much more important than preflop play, that a terrible postflop player can raise AQ UTG and it is going to be less profitable than if a great postflop player raises 10 8s or w/e.

Correct me if i'm wrong on this btw
