Easiest fold I ever make.
Also, by showing us the outcome you make us result oriented as well.

Re: limp or results oriented? stars 25 turbo
 

do you limp this in mp or lp? i like to limp ATs - AQs ( in early levels - in late levels i'm pushing) to hit either the nut flush or nut straight draw (or a combo of both).

Re: limp or results oriented? stars 25 turbo
 

Early rounds:

ATs: I fold in EP, might limp in MP if I think the table is more on the pf-passive side or might steal. LP, I mostly put in a standard raise and tend to fold on a standard re-raise pf.

AJs: I start stealing earlier (late MP).

AQs: I hate limping AQs at most levels. AQ is a value raise hand for me. First in I put in a standard 3-5 BB raise. After 1-2 limpers, I tend to play the same. I understand that the forum here is split on this issue. I occasionally limp with AQs at late levels if the situation is right to trigger all-ins.

Fold and stop being results oriented!

With a deep enough stack, I'll limp this from later positions sometimes, but I fold it a good bit, too. You need some money in the pot and a passive table to make it worth it, IMO. It's a good fold here.

Also, I doubt your guy limps his AA with two limpers in front of him, so you'd most likely end up folding this to his pre-flop raise, anyway. Then again, he was willing to make multiple raises on a flop where he ought to only be seeing JT (and so was his idiot opponent).

FWIW if the table is playing passively I limp this. I wouldn't in level 2 on party though.

Re: limp or results oriented? stars 25 turbo
 

I fold this so fast.

Results oriented is bad also.

By the way, I fold ATo, and call A9s too. Again, only on passive tables on stars.

Re: limp or results oriented? stars 25 turbo
 

Yes but we all know you're a LAG at heart [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Re: limp or results oriented? stars 25 turbo
 

Good fold...I would limp ATs from mp and fold ATo unless in CO+1 or better. A9s I would fold EP everytime...I'd rather play 9Ts from there.

Re: limp or results oriented? stars 25 turbo
 

Limp, fold to the raise, and don't look at the board.

You can afford to limp once or twice in early rounds on PS.

Re: limp or results oriented? stars 25 turbo
 

this is a stars turbo. i limp here. what is 20 chips out of 1500 as opposed to a party sng where you only start with 800 chips

It's actually 30, but yeah.

Re: limp or results oriented? stars 25 turbo
 

ah i didn't really read it carefully. just assumed it was the first level. anyways i still limp, fold to a raise (except min-raise and will think about it if he makes it T90)

If he makes it 90 then I think about how multiway the pot will be, 4 players I call.
