Default When are you raising with this?

You are playing 6max, my hand happened to be only 5handed.

UTG is loose passive preflop, calls down if he hits anything, can easily trap

UTG calls, folded to me SB, SB?????

You are in the small blind with Axo or Axs, what are the lowest combinations here that you are raising

To raise the lower end of the scale it would depend a lot on the big blind and how passive he is.

How about both ways, if the BB is LPA and if he is a TAG

just remember that you're going to be out of position for the whole hand. With aggressive players that could knock out your passive dude who would be padding the pot. It all comes down to how much they defend their blinds. Personally though I hate unsuited Aces below tens and I do not look for situations to play them.

You really only think AT+, I was in this situation with A5o and I thought about raising, I folded. But against a BB that is going to fold more often than not (or at least have a good read on), I think this could be very good with A8o maybe A7, and I raise with A7s, definetly A8s. You think this is throwing money away?

I think playing oop can be fun too [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

What do you do for real kicks? Masturbate with a cheese-grator?

I'm no 6-max expert, but probably A9o and A7s for me (somewhat arbitrary numbers).

My cards don't matter much to me here, I want to know how likely I am to knock out BB if I do raise.
