Default Re: Limping QQ under the gun

[ QUOTE ]
In a full game, I limp a lot of the time if I play a hand UTG. I'll also limp-reraise with many hands. Obviously there are many conditions where limping can be fine w/ QQ early. In a shorter game, I like to raise a lot more UTG, hence I usually raise this one too.

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I am generally speaking of a full game, and do raise this under the gun in short (six or less) games since I'm more likely to have position, and besides, this is a game of blind stealing much more so than a ring game.

Just out of curiousity, do you limp AK here also? AA/KK with the intent to reraise (if the table is aggressive enough)? JJ/TT? If you limp any of those, how many of those do you plan to always reraise?

I limp all of those (I select tables/games that are aggressive enough to make limp/reraising AA/KK profitable), plan to always reraise AA/KK, sometimes reraise AK/QQ, and never reraise JJ/TT (shouldn't say "never", but almost never).

FWIW, I limp-reraise 99-22/air here once in a while to mix up my game.
