I don't like it at all. Especially at a lower buy in. Regardless of your read on MP2.

Since when is $55 a lower buyin? I've done this once in 20,000 hands, and I definitely had a strong read on the limper.

durron,

The biggest problem with doing this 'move' at a $55 is the players behind you (despite your initial limper read)...My guess is that this sort of thing isn't even really possibly +EV until *maybe* the 109s or 215s.

Well, obviously giga will get a K95 flop and triple up against AK and AA, so I'd be fine there.

I say that due to the quality of players, and relevance of your information of those players in regards to the situation. For instance, the fact that:

doesn't matter much at this buy in.

You're putting too much at risk in MP here without a hand.

Yeah. Just think about the risk verse reward proposition here. You know why this is bad.

When you say this is +EV at 109s or 215s, are you talking about image that regulars would remember or something? It just doesn't seem like a pfr with 95o and then betting any ragged flop can be profitable. Could you elaborate on why making this move can be +EV if it isn't just a table image "future gains" sort of reason?
