How do you guys play small PP's in EP?I tend to raise AA-99limp 77-88fold 22-66

Same, except raise 8's and limp with 6's. If the game is particularly loose, limp with 8's down and raise 9's up.

sounds good.I lie to myself a lot.But will fold 22-44 in most 2/4 games from EP.

In a lot of 2/4 games, the tables are loose-passive enough to limp 22-44 UTG. It can be done.- Zach

At loose/passive tables, I limp 22-99 for set value, and raise TT-AA.At tight aggressive tables, I fold 22-66, limp 77-88, and raise 99-AA. Most of the time anyway...

at tight aggro tables ill raise thru 77, and fold the rest. ill fold a eveything below 77 in mp if im first in as well. no point in trying to hit the set with so few and would hate to call a raise here. the less aggro the table the more likely i am to limp here in ep with everything up to 99.

What is your line for calling a raise behind you with 77 (or similar) in MP after you limped? - With 5+ callers I almost always call one more (especially if I'm closing the action) - With one other player, I often re-raise hoping to represent a strong hand and he misses the flop. - But with 2-4 other players, I usually feel lost. (witch is the most typical situation)Any advice? What are your stratagies????????

if its one bet to you i always call. youre getting double the pot odds on what youve started with. this goes for any hand i limp and get raised, it doesnt matter if you limped in with trash from the sb. im almost positive folding here is a crime. if it gets three bet im only calling if there are three or more in the pot. as for the limp/reraise i never do it. i dont really understand the point, and the hand always plays out unpredictably from there. i like predictable opponents in these situations. with all that out there you then have to evaluate who you are up against and what comes on the flop. youre looking for low flops if you dont hit your set and then ckrse or lead out depending on how dumb your opponent is.
