You see a player you've played only a few hands against raise with 75s OOP. How many hands do you need to feel like you've established his/her range?

Thank you for posting

If everyone folds to the hijack who raises and I am on the button Hj is OOP if I call

Raising 75s in that spot means little for their overall range

So we must be more precise in our evaluation of the why for every action

Also if the table is full of weak passive players who fold or call never 3bet a wider range is good poker
Raising 75s is a much better play than limping it

Hope this helps
