Default Re: Things I never do

[ QUOTE ]
--Open outside the blinds with small pocket pairs 22-44

[/ QUOTE ]

Open these on the button usually.

[ QUOTE ]

--Open in EP/MP with suited connectors smaller than T9s

[/ QUOTE ]

Don't start now.

[ QUOTE ]

--Open with unsuited connectors smaller than JTo anywhere

[/ QUOTE ]

Sometimes I'll open the best of these(T9o and 98o) on the button vs. tight blinds.

[ QUOTE ]

--Come in with steal hands (Kxs, Ax, 66-- with a limper)

[/ QUOTE ]

I do this a lot and so do many good players whose hand histories I've reviewed.

[ QUOTE ]

--Coldcall or call a raise from the SB (reraise or fold)

[/ QUOTE ]

I cold call sometimes in multi-way pots with suited connectors and pocket pairs.

[ QUOTE ]

--Open limp, from any position

[/ QUOTE ]

Rarely I'll do this in the SB only under the right circumstances.

[ QUOTE ]

--Steal with offsuit hands with a 2 or 3 except from the SB

[/ QUOTE ]

I steal A2/A3 OTB only.

[ QUOTE ]

--3bet without a high quality hand except from the BB, or a pair 55+ in the SB (specifically hands like KJ/ATs/66 get tossed to an EP raise).

[/ QUOTE ]

I 3-bet medium quality hands like ATs and 66 quite frequently. I'll go lower than that if circumstances permit.

[ QUOTE ]

--Steal with no hand whatsoever (though I will steal from the SB with ATS against someone who folds their BB too much, but not from the button)

[/ QUOTE ]

I'll steal with 32o if I think it's +EV. It isn't very often.

[ QUOTE ]

--Open raise with low (A8--) aces in the CO, same with K8o and lower.

[/ QUOTE ]

A7/A8 are good in the CO. I'll raise down to A5 if button is tight.
