Re: Axo from the SB
[ QUOTE ]
Sorry if something like this has been posted before, but it's something I've been struggling with a bit since making the move to 6-max. Say you are in the SB and hold Axo where x is less than Ten. Vs. limpers, what circumstances are hands playable? Assume loose limpers, around 50% vpip, when do you complete, when do you raise, and when do you fold?
If there's one loose limper in, which ones are you raising, completing or folding?
Against 2 limpers? 3? 4? What about tighter limpers? How much do pot odds help the fact that you are playing a weak multiway hand out of position? Thanks for any input!

Deciding whether to play depends on the range of hands villains will limp. If they are pretty loose, your ace is probably good.
How you should play depends on villains' postflop play. If they are weak, you should raise because it increases your chances of taking the pot with a flop/turn bet. If villains are aggressive, you should limp and wait for a good flop before putting more bets into it (being OOP means your ace-high loses value).
