NL4: Not going broke with junk in the big blind

jugglegeek

This happens often enough to be tilting when there are so many limpped pots. You get dealt a hand that you would never call a raise with in the big blind and then flop two pair in a multi-way pot out of possition. I read a stratergy piece about this, advising the following line. At any point in the hand I'm folding to a raise.

Aside from the obvious point that it is exploitable by regs to take the same unusual line for pot control from the blinds. Is there anything wrong with this hand.

Remeber, the aim is to get value from one pair hands, while not going broke to sets/straights/better two-pairs.

Leading would be fine but i prefer c/r as I expect someone to bet for me. When I c/r though im going big and looking to pot commit myself once I bet the turn.
