Default Re: All in from the BB to pick up pot.

Nice to get a few extra chips, but you are getting undeterminably large odds with a free look at the flop. Why give up those odds for a small take?

Anyway, my personal opinion is that I don't make plays from BB with limpers. Your implied odds are too large to screw with... you put nothing in with the chance to take ALL of someone's chips. Basically, you pass up an opportunity to make a lot of chips for a few chips.

Of course, Ben Franklin said "A chip in the stack is worth 2 in the pot", or something like that [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
