Re: Specific preflop plays
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] I really hate KTo. Can somebody convince me to play this? [/ QUOTE ] Sure, if you enjoy the aggravation of burning up chips when you hit against the passive limper who doesn't raise with A 10, KJ and KQ. Miniscule ev at best- not worth getting into trouble over IMO. [/ QUOTE ] How about when we hit vs dominated hands like JT/QT/K9s, which are more likely to have been limped in than AT and KQ. |

Re: Specific preflop plays
Here's a question: Take the same instance of the KT examples but make it KTs.
Is this a raise in both situations? |

Re: Don\'t hate-evaluate
I apologize that the original post was a little bit vague, as I had intended to include necessary preflop information. The intention was supposed to be that the loose-bad player was limping in EP while the loose/decent player was in MP. The loose/decent player would have a greater range of limping hands, but will generally play them well postflop.

Re: Specific preflop plays
If there was some chance of getting the blinds out I would raise AT. If there isn't... MAYBE I'd still raise with 2 limpers.
I am not playing KT at all in this situation. |

Re: Specific preflop plays
The only item that really surprises me in these results is that people are more willing to play KTo, a hand that doesn't play well multiway, when there are 3 limpers instead of 2. Is this because the additional player is poor or because you (the people who called with 3 but not 2 limpers) like this hand against more players?
