I do agree with this sentiment, however, I think in some instances there's just not a good option (only a less evil option) and leaning into what we were assuming the brunt of his range is, 22-66, I think if you weighed the other options relatively (raise/fold, raise/call, limp/??, and fold) jamming is the least evil of the 5 options presented to us so I couldn't blame him for just ripping in the small pairs (especially judging by what the general population sentiment seems to be on calling range)
I suppose raise/fold could be a close second but still feels really weird for someone like Moorman who may be inducing rejams from Axs and other small pairs. I suppose 22-44 maybe we can r/f but couldn't imagine r/f 55 or 66 with his image. Further, if he jams 22 or 33, seems like population is folding 44/55 and even some 66 quite regularly so it can't be that bad?
Interesting spot, appreciate the dialogue, guys.
