Unopened pots on button at .50/1
So rarely does it happen that it is folded to you at the button at this level that I haven't gained much experience.
As a rule of thumb: -which hands do you raise? -which hands do you call with? -which hands do you fold? I multitable so I don't get very good reads, so assume you have no viable read. |

I raise 66+, any ace, K7s+, some offsuit broadway cards.
I call very rarely (really just 55-). [ QUOTE ] I multitable so I don't get very good reads [/ QUOTE ] ruh roh |

Re: Unopened pots on button at .50/1
Almost never call first in on the button. I don't even know
if I have done that. This is what I steal/defend with, around 35-40 % of all hands depending on opponents: Raise with these hands on the cut off: Any Axs, A8, Q9s, JT, J9s, pairs down to 44 Raise with these hands on the Button: Any A, K7, Kxs, Q7s, Q9, J8, J7s, T8s, 98s pairs down to 44 Defend in BB: any A, any K Q5 J7 T7 98 54s 97s T7s any pair Reraise with your better hands, don't just call with TT for instance to slowplay. Make him fear stealing from you! All better hands than above of course, J7 means you should play J8, J9 etc. If the table is tight steal from MP3 with almost the same standards as CO steals. Any two cards T or higher, A8 and K9s do fine. If the blinds are calling stations don't steal with hands that lack showdown value like J7. Learn to steal early at low limits where it's cheap, I play crypto 1/2 right now and stealing is key there. Good players steal with 45 % of all hands, strive to have at least 30 %. |

Re: Unopened pots on button at .50/1
I'd just about never call here and raise any hand i was playing. Hands to be played really depends on the blinds.

Re: Unopened pots on button at .50/1
I agree, thats one of the most important parts about gametime/playerview, when on blind steals.

Some Offsuit broadways cards? which ones - if any big offsuit cards are the ones you want to be raising liberaly if it's folded to you. Sarge[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] |

They defend far far to much for you to be raising half of those hands. Sarge[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] |
