Marginal Pf Play

[Zach6668 513]

Absolute PokerLimit Holdem Ring gameLimit: $2/$46 playersConverterPre-flop: (6 players) Hero is Button with 5 K UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, CO folds, Hero folds...UTG+1 is the same guy from the other hands... 76/11/1.85.BB is really loose, SB is about a 40% VPIP.Is this a standard fold, or do some of you isolate the donk with a raise here?

Pretty hard to isolate on a very loose big blind. Id fold. Anyone limp?

Raising when the BB is loose is probably not a good idea since your never getting HU neways. I would limp here though, because I want to play as many (profitable) hands as I can vs weak players.

I don't fold in the situation you described.Playing hands against bad players when you have position is profitable.As long as we play accurately postflop.Your hand is very marginal.But with the button, it's good enough for me.I enter the hand both ways.If the fish is not a showdown monkey and I think I can isolate, then I raise.But I don't mind the limp either against weak players.Because if these opponents are bad enough to call me down with a worse hand when I hit my K, or are weak enough to fold when I don't, then the 1 small bet invested preflop is well worth it.Conclusion:I don't think you can go terribly wrong with any of the preflop choices.But I greatly enjoy mixing it up with fish from the button.--CM
