Not getting any cards

[Elvis]

I have a theoretical question. Suppose you play three-handed limit hold'em online against players you have never seen before. Then, for the first 12 twelve hand, you are dealt rags (72o, J3o, 38o, etc), and every time you are in the BB someone raises. How should you play?

keep folding until you get something playable

fold

its good and bad - 3 handed is largely an image/mind game - extreme swings in the quality of your cards can always be a positive - at least it helps to think that while your getting blinded to death

impatience is usually a quicker death

Keep folding unplayable hands. Use your time out to watch your opponents, get a feel for their play. If you get anything halfway decent, three bet it and take advantage of your tight image.
