Default suited connectors

JTs-910s it's quite common in NL to attack blinds with these. Some ppl even use them to defend SB with.

Typical move:
all fold to button.
Button = raise (loose or tight doesn't matter)
You = SB = JTs - re-raise:
BB folds.. (two threatening players)
button (mid PP or two face cards) either folds or

if he's loose your one on one with a slow play threat that could give you the turn for free i.e 50/50 chance of hitting top pair - plus srt8 / flush in the background.. Its a squabble over the blinds but that's what mid-limit poker is about... If he's played a mid pp and a face card lands you might take him on the bluff...

The thing with ~JT is that it always completes the dominant str8....

If he has got AK and you hit the T - then you'll draw him out on overcard betting.

You can't fold good cards like JT s around the blinds....
