Default 2

Hand 2 I think lead may be better here on flop.

BB is 22 vpip /15 pfr /2.1 agg /36 wtsd / 2500 hands

Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: (3 SB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, MP folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB calls.

Turn: (3.50 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls.

River: (5.50 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>

Raise preflop. Since you didn't, bet the flop.

Me too. There is a chance he checks through a weak 8 and he might have gotten there with the 4. I doubt he bluffs at this pot though.

I think like a flop lead better than a cr. When the flop is all undercards and I have a piece, I feel like it's unlikely for a cr to work unless I am behind. The BB is not the person you were hoping to cr but I would have done it anyway and played the same up to the river.

Raise preflop

what do you raise down to here? I usually do A9s/ATo/KJs/KQo/77, but apparently that's too weak. I just hate being OOP v. a loose limper without a showdowny hand, but than again Ax is showdowny.

I dont know if this is correct or not but against a loose limper and a tight BB I usually raise down to A6o/44/K10o and possiblly K8s depending on how weak the limper is postflop. I would like to see some more experienced posters opinions on this though.

I think that your default play should be to raise any hand that's good enough to play, it costs 1 extra SB. I'll grant that if the BB is sure to call your raise then their may be times it's OK to limp though I don't like it much in the 2/5 blind structure. Against an aggressive BB, your limp invites a raise with a wide range of hands.

I lead the flop... don't wanna give a freebie or a gutter a good excuse to get involved and take a stab. Small pot, I think often your villains let you have it here.
