I've been trying to patch some leads up lately, and I think my biggest problem is early position play. I am just trying to get some feedback here.In a typical weak/loose 9 or 10 handed limit game (think party poker 3/6 or 5/10) what are your general opening standards from early position? Are there any hands you're limping? There's a moderate level of aggression, and almost every pot has a preflop raise. People call 2 cold with a level of frequency. UTG raises don't get a great deal of respect.3-betting is not super-common, but not out of the ordinary.Also, I'm pretty aggressive, but more so after the flop. Thanks guys. I know this is a lame question, but I could use the feedbackT. Iceman

It depends on the table, but I will sometimes open-limp ATs, KJs, KTs, QJs, JTs, and 77 in EP. It's pretty rare that I open-limp with anything else in those games.I usually open-raise AA-88, KQ, AQ, AJ. At some tables, ATs, ATo, KJs, KJo (very rarely), and 77.

Full ring is for losers and the chinese. You of all people should know this, Iceman.If I'm at a table worth a considerable stay, I'm limping suited paint, suited aces and PP's if it's not too aggressive. I'll tone it down to higher PP's if it gets too aggro. If it's loose and passive enough and I can count on at least 2-3 cold callers, I might start making some ridiculous raises with the suited paint.Oh, and you're are a lesbian.

I'd take even money that you were drunk when you posted that.I don't like playing shorthanded all that much, to be honest. I find that I win when I play, and usually at a pretty decent clip, but I can beat 4 ring tables for a higher rate. If I'm playing one table, I'll play shorthanded. If I'm playing NL, I'll play shorthanded. But the 3/6 and 5/10 games are so bad I might as well hit up that autopilot shit....How many of you all are limping with KJo? How many of you are limping with ATo? How many of you are raising with either hand? How are you playint KTs, QJs, and TJs up front? How about your pocket pairs 88-22?Ice
