looshle 6 Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Not that bad with the button and perfect table conditions. I'd limp too. Link to post Share on other sites
wrto4556 0 Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 wtf?? i play K3s here and a shit ton of other hands. This is easy as hell, bro. Link to post Share on other sites
akishore 0 Posted September 13, 2005 Author Share Posted September 13, 2005 is 3 2 fine?my point is, where do you draw the line? 4 3 is pretty crappy in limit, but if it's okay to play it, i will strongly argue that 3 2 and in fact hands like 4 2 and 5 3 and 5 2 are playable as well.aseem Link to post Share on other sites
akishore 0 Posted September 13, 2005 Author Share Posted September 13, 2005 wtf?? i play K3s here and a censored ton of other hands. This is easy as hell, bro.hahaha, K3s is sooooo much stronger than 43s, but i agree with what you're saying. i tend to be really loose in these uber-soft games, and i just want to analyze whether i'm getting too loose.my point is, i'm pretty sure i would limp if i had 32s here too. 42s, i'm not sure but i lean towards limping it. 53s i limp, 52s i feel like folding but i think if i'm playing the other hands that this is just as playable. not sure, though.aseem Link to post Share on other sites

akishore 0 Posted September 13, 2005 Author Share Posted September 13, 2005 you guys missed my point.what is the cutoff for limping here?if it's okay to limp 43s, i'm pretty sure 52s becomes playable too.get it?aseem Link to post Share on other sites
Actuary 3 Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 the cutoff is player vs opponents dependentYou, Aseem, can play more marginal hands against a passive/loose table than I could against a TAG table. (or that same table you are on..)There's no specific answer. Link to post Share on other sites
akishore 0 Posted September 13, 2005 Author Share Posted September 13, 2005 i understand, actuary, but it seems none of you are still getting my point really.i'm not asking for an exact cutoff, but i need to know just how marginal or non-marginal this is.i mean, wrto and kdawg make this sound like it's not close.if this is an easy limp, isn't 52s? or is 52s "close"?if this is an easy limp, is 84s easy too? or is it close/marginal?do you see where i'm going? ...aseem Link to post Share on other sites
Actuary 3 Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 why do u think I don't understand your question?Whether it's marginal or not depends on yuor post flop skillsrelative to your opponents. I know you said you know that. Are you asking about the relative strength of 84s vs 45s etc....?You want a ranking of marginal holdings?I'll throw this out there: The lower you go ,the less High Card matters and the more connectivity does. So, I would say 45s is stronger than 73s.At least it feels like it. Link to post Share on other sites

I also hate making cutoffs for what to limp with/raise with, it makes the game too mechanical Link to post Share on other sites
princeof56k 0 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Dont know if its right, but here's what I've been doing.If I have 4 or more limpers in front of me, I limp with any suited cards. I'm looking to make a flush draw, 2 pair, trips or a good straight draw. Since I'm at the back of the table, I'm probably going to be able raise it if I hit.BTW, if I end up making TP with a crap kicker, I'm usually folding if someone bets in front of me. If its checked to me, I'm betting. Link to post Share on other sites

akishore 0 Posted September 14, 2005 Author Share Posted September 14, 2005 i didn't mean a "mechanical" arbitrary cutoff.i'm just saying, is it really as "easy" of a limp as some of you claim it is?if so, how easy are other hands to limp?where does it become CLOSE or grey?aseem Link to post Share on other sites

The way I see it with 7-8 ppl potentialy seeing the flop any two suited connector cards are viable. ImhoAnd at what point do any two suited cards look ugly? Do they? Link to post Share on other sites
