While starting to re-read SSHE I came across his preflop hand charts for loose and tight games and realized that I have drifted somewhat from his recommendations. So I just wanted to ask you all a couple questions about preflop strategy.
The game in question would be a moderately tight low limit $2/$4 or $3/$6 game with an average of about 4 players seeing the flop.
Where I seem to have drifted away from this chart is that I never open limp from middle position, I either raise or fold. But this is making me fold hands like A2s and 22 in middle position when no one enters the pot that Miller says to call with.
Should I be limping A2s and 22 in MP when it folds to me? I really don't think those hands are strong enough to be raising that early but let me know I'm interested to know what others are doing in these situations.
