Default Playing Big Hole Cards in Low Limit Stud



Stud Experts,


Most of you who will respond know that I play primarily 2-10 spread limit. The games are very soft, and the implied odds are such that any live pair with any live kicker is almost always a limping hand. So, my question is this:


If I am limping in with a buried pair of threes, should I also be limping with two live big cards (Q or above, or in some instances, a J) in the hole? I can usually blow out most of the players with a $10 bet on 4th, so if I hit my big pair, I can generally play against one or two opponents.


This is a simple question, but in a game such as I describe, should I be calling the $2 bring-in with buried big cards, hoping to improve to a percentage winner on 4th street and, if not, being able to fold for minimal cost? Only if I also have two suited cards? Any recommendations helpful.


Thanks.


Mike
