Default Re: omfg not another pf Q!!

[ QUOTE ]
If the button is limping and the BB has a random hand, shouldn't you presume you have the best hand pf and raise?

The implied odds on this undertaking are horrible. If you raise A4 and get heads up with button there are only two possible outcomes to the hand:

1. You take it down on the flop or turn.

2. You go to showdown and lose.

I'm exaggerating, but the fact remains that you are OOP versus a Villain who has something like T9 and almost always knows who has the best hand. Meanwhile you have no idea if your ace is good or not.

Of course if BB does play and he probably will that's just terrible.
