lol. "lessee... full house, full house, straight flush, two royal flushes... woo-hoo! I win! Five of a kind!"
As far as playing the blinds when raised, how big's the pot? That's the only real concern for marginal hands. Where did the raise come from? UTG, MP, cutoff, button? If it puts you heads-up, do you have a hand that would win heads-up unimproved? If it's a six-way pot, I'd call with anything (just did last night, capped preflop by the time it got to my BB, with 5(!) callers. Had KTs, decided it was worth the 3.5 small bets ($3.50) to get a shot at this already $25 pot, which was going to grow quickly post flop. Flop was AXXs, giving me the nuts. Sweet!).
I think in PT, my 'fold SB to steal' is close to 90%. BB I defend more often.
