Re: Play a Hand With the Masters #2 Pre-Flop

The problem is that, if you're willing to get all your chips in after an ace or king flops

By limping with 26BB's you are probably not going to be in a positon to get your whole stack in.....if the action is that heavy, I need 2 pair or better to stick around.
Excercising pot control can yeild nice pots off of KJ, KQ Ax in this spot, but I have no illuisons about doubling up unless I have 2 pair or better.
I understand your point, but it will rarely get to the point of playing for your whole stack in an unraised pot, and if it does TPTK isn't enough.
That is also the reason that raising isn't always the best play.
If you flop TPTK in a raised pot and get action, you have to play for your stack, and I like to be a little stronger than TPTK when playing for whole stack at 26BB's. (not that I'm afraid to, I just prefer not to)
