lately, i've been getting small pockets as well, but i seem to be winning with them alot as well, which has worked out great for me
my main winner is pocket 5s, i seem to hit a 5 on the flop almost every time i get that hand, its awesome. with small pockets, i like to bet huge pre-flop to scare chasers out, and so if people call, i get a good pot if i hit, which is always nice to have. if i'm raised though, i have to think about it, but i will usually fold if its a big enough raise. just to be safe
