A confusing hand for me, wondering bout agression and wa/wb

[afk]

Some will say raise preflop, some will not. I usually limp ATo in this situation but I honestly don't think that there is a huge difference either way.

Rather than edit the previous post I'll just leave that out there so I can learn from you @bsolute. My coach just updated me on starting hands in MP ;o) His coach had him playing that way until he got better at Post-flop and he has been doing the same with me but has forgotten to update me on PF play w/ marginal/speculative hands recently ;o)

Sorry to confuse this post and forgive me if it's been hijacked.

Thank you all for the insite. I have just moved up in limits so I seem to be playing alittle weaker due to the $ involved. I havn't been playing for too long and still feel alittle lost on plenty of hands.

All the study and txt book stuff seems to fly out the door when I play vs weak loose players because I don't feel confident in knowing what they hold. If there are three or fore at a table it tends to freak me out. When they just call with either a fh or nothing I tend to chicken out at this lvl, which is 5x bigger than my last. I know that thies are the guys I want at the table, and felt prity good about it at the lower lvl, but right now being down $20 instead of $2 is kind of intimidating to me.

And to go on with the hijack I was realy wondering who you have as a coach jbrick? I have realy been considering trying to hire one, tho it would mean a big chunk out of my br. How do you like it, and is it in person or by history?

Thanks again for the valuable input everyone.

hmmm...people play differently obviously, and i am no coach by any means [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] playing ATo, IMHO, depends a lot on your postflop play. so i don't think it is a MAJOR problem to limp and it really depends on your reads of the other players at the table.

i like raising from your position to buy the button and get rid of the blinds. i like playing ATo to a small field. others may play it differently. go with your comfort level.

Preflop is fine. I'd bet the river.
