Do you open-limp from EP with Axs?

[LinusKS]

SSH says to do it.

If you do - or if you don't - what limits do you play, and online, or live?

If you are doing this. Look at your pokertracker stats for AXs UTG, UTG+1. Then stop.

If you're not doing this in a passive game, start.

I played some 2/4 today and would certainly limp with Axs. It's a rarity to find a 3/6 table where this is correct.

[krishanleong]

I've played 140K hands of 2/4. Over 100K was playing AXs UTG more than 90% of the time. It was a .25BB leak for me. Even at 2/4 I think you have to be very selective.

Spydog, I know you are a solid player. And I think you think I'm decent. I really believe that a VP$IP over 30% at 2/4 is a leak. Can you please post these stats for me?

Post your VP$IP from UTG, UTG+1 with A7s-, number of hands and BB/hand. Thanks,

Krishan

These hands are profitable at decent tables (and I looked at PT to confirm, too!). Edit: My data is from 2/4 (and 1/2).

I only have ~28,000 hands total in PT and half of those are at 1/2. Furthermore, I didn't start limping these hands UTG until late in my time at 1/2 when I became more comfortable with my post-flop play. Limiting the filter to just UTG and UTG+1 means the sample size is absurdly small, but . . .

A7s - A2s
VP$IP from UTG or UTG+1: 49.47
Total # Hands: 95
Total BB/Hand: 0.51

A6s is losing (0.25); the rest are profitable with A2s at 0.09 and A7s at 1.19.

Obviously this is of almost no value due to sample size (Hey! my earn with A7s from UTG or UTG+1 is better than my earn with AKs from all positions!)

Did you really want the stats, or were you just hoping to sneer about sample size? Because I figure even your 140,000 hands at 2/4 should yield about 500 total hands of A7s - A2s in UTG or UTG+1, meaning we're still playing with a pretty damn small sample size regardless.

This looks good. You are discriminating. I agree the BB/hand stats are worthless due to sample size. I thought you might have a larger sample.
