Dear All,
I have posted here re: Why raise AK,AQ pre-flop.... now as an addition to this question.
I play $2/$4 PP with success, I am probably too loose and play things like K10o if I am late position with no raises and 6 people have folded before me and I am a sucker for suited connectors regardless of size.
However I read games pretty well and feel I bluff well (probably why I am winning- makes up for my leakages) anyway enough confessing.
My question is:
Should you raise with AK,AQ,AJ in LP or on the blinds?
The reason I ask is I have good success with these types of hand early position but when you have limpers who have already bet $2, I have yet to see a player fold to the additional $2 raise and with say 7 or 8 players in the hand J8,Q9 etc seems to win whereas if I was EP then these hands probably would not have called, I mean calling an extra $2 when you have committed $2 already is easier than calling $4 when you can walk away.
I think I know the answer here, but humor me /images/graemlins/smirk.gif
any thoughts?
Regards David
