Re: ($11) First hand and everyone is limping
it may be 15 for 135, but what are the odds u'll hit a playable hand?
u need nut-straight or a boat...u can play a set or 2pair as well, tho beware
too many people in the pot...not worth it...
for perspective, pokerstove did an analysis of when it's ok to play unsuited connectors...
0-gap: sb with 5 limpers
1-gap: sb with 6 limpers
2-gap: unplayable
3-gap: unplayable
only 3.8% of flops will fit, according to pokerstove, and you'll win 53% of those hands
you need 60-1 odds to call 3-gap unsuited
12:1 for 0gap
15:1 for 1gap
20:1 for 2gap
hand % flop % win combined
high card 0.00 0.00 0.00
one pair 0.00 0.00 0.00
two pair 1.69 28.00 0.47
trips 0.89 61.00 0.54
