Default Re: Another PP Question

All right, preflop raises the general question: "if I'm playing for set value, does that mean I fold even to a minraise?" If I assume both limpers call (dangerous assumption) I'm still only getting 6.5 to 1 [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]. Should I have folded?

The odds of setting are are 7.5:1 and you're "only" getting 6.5:1 (wouldn't it be 7.5:1 anyway if both limpers called)? The implied odds are through the roof. Getting 6.5:1 is like limping with 5 limpers ahead of you. Surely you don't think that's not a good situation to try to flop a set?
