Default Because that would make you tighter than me...

and that ain't good poker! [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Hand 2:
Blinds 50/100 7 left
UTG (2000) limps (has done it before without a monster).
You are UTG+1 with 88 and 800 left.


Say you limp and play the hand for set value. You miss - you fold. There goes 100 of your 800 remaining chips. Next you are UTG, then after that you lose a minimum of 150 to the blinds. Now you're down to 550.

Why would you fold this preflop? You wouldn't. You aren't waiting to Aces here.

Any raise, therefore, should be all-in for your remaining 8BB. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
