Default EP suited connectors questions (6max)

Im talking about normal table conditions, in UTG and EP what do u do with suited connectors? i kinda live by the never open limp rule in 6 max but i dont love open raising SC's, but hate calling raises with them OOP. i have been folding a lot of them and raising the ones i open with like i would any other hand i would play from that spot. I just feel like i can out play most villains and would like to hear some opinions on open limping or open raising or just switching it up.

I'm folding. These hands need position big time.

Muck 90% of the time unless there is a good chance of 3-5 limpers

10% play to vary your play, raise mayb 1% of time

i guess part of why i ask is 'cause i commonly open raise any pair up front and any other hand im playing. I have been folding this a lot lately and i guess this is pretty much consensus. Do u guys raise pp's here or just limp them and hope to set up.

In that case, i revoke my answer. I can't play profitably like this so I can't answer.

Ditto - i typically shoot for 4+ opponents playing suited connectors to get decent implied odds - which is not a given from EP unless multiple folks behind you auto-limp.

I always fold suited connectors UTG unless it's a strong hand. But anything say...T9 suited and lower, it's garbage.

Fold it.

Maybe I'm missing something here but IMO folding SC's UTG in a 6max NL game is totally weak. NOT calling stardard raises (unless HU OOP) is totally weak.

I'm no Doyle but I'll play suited connectors down to 6 7 in almost any situation so I can stack someone who falls in love with their overpair. If I call a 4xBB raise w/ 67s so what? If I hit big I can take someone's entire stack. If I miss, I fold and I've lost 4BB's. It's not like I'm gonna love the flop if I hit just one pair.

I'm not flaming here but anyone who folds these hands so easily has got to loosen up more in SH play.

Now feel free to completely debunk everything I just said [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
