Trips/Top Kicker Facing Super Confuzzing Line

[d0zer]

hhmmm- that's an interesting point, care to expand on it a little?

With deep stacks, postflop hand playability, skill advantage, and positional advantage are often much more important than preflop equities. Reverse implied odds are also less of a factor if we don't suck postflop. preflop equities become a lot more important with much shallower stacks, or if you're building a low flop SPR with preflop aggression.

I think pre is fine unless we expect a lot of squeezing, which we shouldn't usually with the UTG opener.
