Some confusion with lower pocket pairs early...

[pearljam]

If I limp in with say 44 and someone raises, how much more should I be willing to call with an rouphly 800 chip stack? level 1 and level 2. also, if im in the BB level one with SPP how much of a raise can I call if the pot has good multi way action? thanks in advance....

I'd call a 3bb raise (an extra 50 at the 25 level) with another limper/possible caller...and maybe without but reluctantly. I also wouldnt limp with 44 after level 1 without late position or another limper or 2 in front of me.

As for in the BB, same: call another 2bb if it looks like it will be multiway. However, if by chance the board pairs without an A or K on the flop, you should probably check or fold if it's multiway, but a healthy bet if HU or maybe against 2.
