Default Call and go all in on river OR raise and get it in before river

3-6 live.

I have 18 chips left when this hand happens. I have pocket 6's in MP. EP1 calls, I call, CO calls, B calls, SB calls, and BB checks.

6 players, 5 SB after drop.

Flop K 6 2 rainbow.

SB checks, BB bets, MP1 calls, I call. CO, B, and SB fold.
With no draws, besides runner-runner out there, I don't raise because I want to keep those behind me in.

3 players, 4BB

Turn is 7. No flush possibilty.

I have two Big Bets left. BB checks, MP1 bets. Should I raise and put in my last two bets or should I call and put in my last bet on the river?

Call, hope the other guy calls as well and then last one goes in on the river. Hopefully you can get 2 extra BBs out of the other player.

The real answer is to rebuy before you're down to 3BB.

But, yes, call and call and hope you get 4BB instead of 2.

Ya you should never let yourself get below 20BB and even that is too low IMO, especially when you're playing limit poker.

I usually only buy in with 25BB. :P

(12 is the most you can get in on any hand with a bet-3 raise cap (Where it is a lot of places), I've never gotten more than 6-7 bets in, though.)

Once it's heads up most places you can get all in if you want. I've done it before when I thought we'd be splitting the pot, but the other guy didn't even have the nuts so I got his whole stack. There is no reason to be short stacked in limit poker.

what you should do is never go all in at a limit game.
