Default simple pf ?

Late position, how many limpers do I need for K8s or K9s? What if I'm first in?

In limit, you need 11 at a 10 player table.

If youre first in I hope that means youre the big blind.


In NL and PL if the blinds are small relative to the standard bets and stack sizes it is not a bad play to limp with these hands occassionaly as you will get paid off when you hit. If you are playing limits 40/80 or higher (with good hand reading ability) where mixing up your game is necessary, as frustrating as it is you should stick to more ABC poker (look at the table in the back fo Warren's book for a chart on hand selection by postion)

That's not right. I think in the CO or button two limpers is enough for me to play K9s or K8s. If folded to me on the button I'd probably raise with both, maybe raise with K9s if only one limper. It's a hand that can be easily dominated but can be played profitable in late position.
