Preflop question, SB 1 limper.
No reads.
Sorry for what seems rather simplistic i guess, but this does seem to be a leak of mine as im really not sure at all what to do here preflop. Seems like a raise could take control of the hand, and possibly get it heads up. it also turns an open bet with one overcard in to a continuation bet oop with a decent chance of taking down the pot on the flop, where on most ragged flops im likely ahead. worth it?

Re: Preflop question, SB 1 limper.
This is a situation where I love to limp. Your hand is decent, but not great, and you will be OOP against one or 2 opponents with a hand that not many flops help. I prefer to sneak in getting 5:1 and see if my magic flop materializes.
I just think you can lose a lot more money by raising preflop and then being forced into continuation bets OOP on most flops. If you don't have a read on the guy or you aren't really good at postflop HU, I think it can be a big short-handed leak. On a side note, Is anyone noticing the glitch in the converter? It says 8 players when there are only 7 preflop, and 4 players when there are only 3 on the flop. Anyone know why?
