Default Re: SSH Starting Hands Chart -- Limping in with A2s in EP

[ QUOTE ]
I can understand in very loose passive games, where you get 5+ players seeing the flop. But what I don't understand is why SSHE advocates limping in with A2s in tight games with only 3-5 players seeing the flop.

I'm fairly certain that SSHE only advocates limping with A2s in loose games, not tight.

I limped with Axs early through .25/.50 and .50/1, with some success, but gave it up at 1/2 because the games were somewhat tighter, and more aggressive by an order of magnitude. Trying to limp in these games almost always comes back raised, and I really, really don't want to play OOP in a raised pot with A2s. If an ace comes on the flop, I'm screwed by a bigger kicker nearly every time, and even if i catch a flush draw, I'm likely going to have to call a raise on every street to chase. A few of these can really ruin your day.

You're right, now that I've double-checked it things make a lot more sense now, thank you.
