Limp-folding Heads-up in the Small Blind

[Chris Callahan]

$10/$20 game. Everyone folds to me in the small blind. I call with K5o and the player in the big blind raises. I fold.

Comments on all streets welcome.

I think you should fold it the first time.

I've heard it claimed that when everyone folds to your SB, you should raise or fold. I don't know if this is true or not.

this certainly depends on the player on your left. If he will fold to any raise, you might want to raise all weak hands and call with high pairs, etc.

However, if there is a chance he will raise, I would certainly not limp with a hand like Kx. I think a good rule is: If there is a chance that he will raise, dont limp with anything you dont want to call a raise with.
