What is the definition to you of defending your blind?
Me it is re-raising from the blinds when you think someone is stealing.
This is from a hand last night(I should have remembered and read my notes on this player from earlier in the tourney)
 
 
I am on the button with 6,5 not a great hand mind you but everyone folded to me. I raise here 3X the blinds to see what happens(I have position of course).. SB folds and BB calls.. This is where it gets tricky because I didn't remember from his plays previously or read my notes(calling station). He checks to me on the flop.. I bet out again my previous 3X BB bet, He calls. The cards don't matter to me by now cause I am trying to play him and my position. I bet the turn and he calls.. I am thinking wtf does he have cause I had a pair on a unscary board of J,8,6 for the flop.. Anyway I bet again on the river.. her raises a mini raise..
I call.. he turns over J,8 suited. Not a big deal to me that I lost with the 2 pair. I had to ask him why though. response was I was defending my blind.
I am thinking if you were defending why not re-raise cause you have to act 1st no matter what. I should have realized he had top pair cause 4 other times and 1 in particular that sticks out in my mind. He called the same thing against me.. I bluffed at a pot with 10 being the highest card out there.. and he called me all the way down with 10,2 from the blinds before.
 
The question is what do you think it is to defend your blind when anybody raises? is it the re-raise or the call?
