Default Re: Small Blind XXs

If there are three limpers or more you should probably be playing pretty much any two random cards.

If there are two limpers, I think you should play most suited hands though I think tossing 92s or something like that is probably not going to effect your bottom line in any way.

I think it is fine to play pretty selectively from the small blind if there is only one limper and the pot looks to be three-handed. (You might, say, play any two 9+, all suited As and Ks, Q7+, all suited connectors and 1 gappers, and all As or something like that).

It's important to be conscientious about what hands you are playing from the blinds but it's also good to realize that many of these hands are going to be pretty close to neutral EV and exactly what mix of hands you play is not all that crucial if you play them all well post-flop.
