Re: Playing UTG Loosely
Limp less with premium, raise more with different hands.
Limping does one thing, GET YOU IN TROUBLE. Especially in limit. If you don't know how to get away from AA in a multiway pot when it looks like you're beaten after you limped UTG your better off not limping. And I know exactly what goes through your mind, "I got AA and he doesn't know it so I got him". 1st thing that goes through my mind in a NL tournament game when some schmuck casually limps UTG is "He might have AA be careful". I would much rather raise with 89s then limp. I can easily get away from 89s and my opponents have no idea what I have, also if they call most likely both my cards are live.
