Default Re: Q8s on the button

[ QUOTE ]

i'm in a loose 10-20 game and I find Qh8h on the button, normally I don't play this hand, but my opponent who is wreckless and loose agressive limps in the cutoff after UTG limps in.

I stopped reading right here.

And not because I don't care.

But because I don't understand.

Why on earth would you consider limping on the button with Q8s against three or four opponents?

I'll continue reading this thread if you can make a case for limping. But right now this hand is in the same boat as 72o. I'd never limp it from the button in this case, so I don't care about how to play it in this particular instance.

That's not to say I'd never limp Q8s on the button. I'd just never limp it HERE. If there are seven limpers and they're all loose/passive, sure, I'll call on the button. Maybe. I think SSHE says play this hand if there are 6-8 players to the flop. Oy vey.
