On a personal level I think most of you guys come off as know it all aholes. [/ QUOTE ] The fact that NOBODY has come to your defense should indicate that you're probably losing the argument. Those know-it-all aholes are giving the rest of us free poker lessons. Thicken your skin and learn something.

Re: The first three rounds
I play: AA-TT, AQ, AK for a raise anywhere,
AJ, ATs and 99 down for a limp anywhere, Starting in middle position if it isn't raised I will limp with KQ and KJ. Add in QJ+ from the CO or button for a limp.

Re: The first three rounds
It depends on how good you are postflop. If you have no idea what you're doing (like a lot of people on here) then playing easy to play hands (AK, JJ, both pretty easy to interpret flops) will be best to avoid the tougher spots. The other type of poker I play is live, deeper stacked NL so I think I have more postflop experience than most people who play only SNGS.

[/ QUOTE ] but isn't that the point, in a sng, the stacks are shallow, which means that the implied odds aren't there for limping too many hands. there should be roughly some set that is the "correct" set of hands to play, assuming you play post flop quite well. personally i think that your set is probably too big.

Re: The first three rounds
[ QUOTE ]
that's quite tight. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, and actually now that I think about it, I'm not being honest. I should be talking about AQ/AJ - I fold those in EP/MP all the time. AJs/AQs I'm usually limping from EP/MP and raising from LP. Is it really profitable to be raising AQo from anywhere?

Re: The first three rounds
[ QUOTE ]
i think you play too loose too, but i'd like to hear what some other players think. citanul [/ QUOTE ] I think the discussion is missing some criteria that would make some things clearer. If there are 5 limpers and im on the button, Ill for sure play jts on the button. I wont play it into a light /empty pot though. The problem also is when people talk about what hands they are playing in a vaacuum, it could be easily debated either way depending on the circumstances. I think a problem some newer players have is differentiating between playing a hand for its implied/latent value of becoming a monster and its intrinsic value. Iow, playing 66 is fine in level I if you're getting in cheap in an unraised pot...but what some players I see do is that they continue with that hand because they decide villain doesnt have anything...this is wrong. I am big advocate of varying play, but its important to set boundries for yourself.
