I'm going to post some hands and I want you to respone with whatever is the FIRST thing that comes to your mind.


1) AJ off

2) 44

3) 72 off

4) KJ sooted

5) 89 sooted

6) QQ



Now try positionally. Assume limit full ring game.

1) AJ off; you are third to act. UTG limps.

2) 44 in the BB. Button raises, SB folds.

3) 72 off (For this example: HU NL cash game)

4) KJsooted; 4th to act. Folds to you.

5) 89sooted; 4th to act. UTG limps.

6) QQ; UTG, UTG+1, UTG+2 each limp. Folds to you on button.


Have at it! NO CHEATING! Say what first comes to mind!

Point of this is it's something different from "Hey guys my VPIP is 17% and I'm making 4.3 BB/100 over my last 76 hands. Is this sustainable?"

I'd just like to know what people think immediately after seeing their hand in certain positions.

Guess you and I are only ones interested. lol. Oh well. I'll work on a thread about my VPIP maybe.

1 - raise
2 - call or 3-bet
3 - fold
4 - raise
5 - fold
6 - are you kidding?

Seriously, it's funny how fast I've become attuned to 6-max - almost every response was "raise!" except for the 72 and 89 sooooted (if you're not going to spell it properly, at least include the extra o's).
