Default Re: Implied Odds Pre-flop

[ QUOTE ]
Does this mean that if I have QTo/KTo on the button and there are a lot of limpers to me that I should be inclined to fold these hands even though the pot is growing large at this point?

No, with a large field on the button you should be inclined to play a wide variety of hands. Folding QTo and KTo would be a mistake and you should probably be playing K9o and Q9o. You just have to learn how to get away from top pair. If you have QT and the flop is Q67 in a six player pot and an early positioned player bets there's nothing wrong with just folding. If you get checkraised on that flop you can also fold. You're mainly looking for 2pair, trips, or a straight. Top pair is merely marginal and don't even think about playing second pair.
