Re: Betting the pot with TPTK
top pair top kicker = TPTK
If you got TPTK and you "know" both your opponent just has 2 overcards... you're in good shape, you should win a little over 50% of the time. (if no one is sharing...

Re: Limping with low pocket pair
you're good, the only hands that can beat you is pocket 55 or pocket JJ... in that case you'll have to pay him off.
I'd say he's got a 5, mayby even a smaller fullhouse than yours, or a flush....

Re: Best hand against K-Qo?
JJ vs KQo = the jacks are a slight favorite (57%)
AJs vs KQo = AJs is about a 60% favorite
AA vs KQo = 88% for AA
KK vs KQo = 91% for KK
I'd go with the kings! /images/graemlins/grin.gif
