I'm dumping all but the last (which I'd call).

I voted to fold the last one, but I didn't notice we were SB.

I think you should have a raise option for #3, although it's certainly not an option I would always choose.

I think they're all pretty close except I almost always play JTs in an unraised pot. But I'd be looking at specific stats for opponents who limped in front and left to act for any of these really before making a decision.

I limp with every one of those most of the time except UTG with j10s...I will some times get agressive with a hand like the j9s with a weak limper in front but very seldom

Default Some analysis

Looking at results so far there are only one thing that suprises me.

Hand 1 (J9s):
Fold: 14
Limp: 7 (1 easy)

Hand 4 (JTs):
Fold: 6
Limp: 15 (7 easy)

There are a big differance between these hands. JTs seems to be an easy limp UTG for many players while J9s from MP1 after 1 limper is marginal but the majority wants to fold.

I think the differance between these are very slim. The presence of a limper means a lot IMO since I won't be isolated by a TAG nearly as often when limping 2nd in. Also if I get raised the pot will still end up multiway pretty often since the presence on the earlier limper.

I suspect that limp JTs UTG is some kind of standard posters use and because of that it becomes easy, but I actually think it's not better than limping in hand 1 (not saying any of these hands are folds).

Thoughts?

I do not play 3/6 so I am not fully qualified. However, I agree with your ideas Royale (regarding JTs UTG vs. J9s in MP).

I tend to look at a hand like j10s utg as a questonable hand to be playing out of that spot. Hands like that I tend to raise up. Make a hand like KJo call a raise to play.

I've never tested to reverse the logic when playing poker, does it work?

Honestly, why raise?

Oh crap so I'm not the only guy with vpip > 15 at Party 3/6. And I must say 13.3 is pretty low.

The hands that I'm most likely to play here is Hand #1, Hand#4, then Hand#5.
