I muck this preflop 90% of the time, [/ QUOTE ] I limp with this over 90% of the time. And that's in much tougher games than the Party 2-4. The greater majority of games you'll be in you'll be able to do this. b |

Folding JTs from EP is terrble advice, especially in a loose game.

Re: JTs in family pot, faces turn C/R
Here's the problem I have w/ hands like this, and maybe others can help me out. When I'm faced w/ the checkraise on the turn, I could very well have outs to improve on the river (J or T can give me best hand sometimes), and the pot is fairly large. So if I convince myself to call the turn c/r, is there anyway I can fold the river if I don't improve? At that point you think "wow, i'm getting 13:1" but how often is your hand good?
I guess my question really is should I feel obligated to call the river unimproved even if my reason for calling the turn c/r is that I have outs to improve? I always feel icky after getting c/r here. |

On the button with at least 3 limpers I raise it. In the blinds I complete/check. I have, however, noticed myself open-limping a lot with QJs. Maybe that's a leak. But the alternatives don't seem as attractive either. |

hooray for fearless limping. Honestly guys, it's fun to limp hands that are profitable. |

Re: sults
He had A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and MHIG. I wonder if I got lucky that he was the rare trickster who tries to check-raise on a semi-bluff, or if I should always make this call in this spot with this size pot. I'm leaning towards call. Especially now. But that's probably re: sults oriented.

Stop folding there 90% of the time.

Re: sults
Yeah that 2nd spade is always a recipe for someone to whip out the semi bluff. always.
