Default Re: Marginal Hand #4 Playing a passive table

Ok, here's a question for all the people who fold here (which is everybody I guess lol). Do you limp in with 22 on this table? 33? 44 55? Let me know.

Small pocket pairs are much easier to play postflop than this hand -- fit or fold gives you great implied odds into a big field. With this hand, you don't know how many ppl will come in, and you're out of position for the rest of the hand. Not a problem if you flop the flush, but more often you'll make bottom pair, 2nd pair, or similar that's going to be a bear to play out.

I guess I'm tighter than a few of the earlier posters; I chuck this without a second thought. (At least they had to think [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img])
