I play like a drunk. For the record, I'm probably playing any hand I limp UTG like this on this flop.

Everything alright?

Flop and turn are good. I love beating AK type hands with dueces. I love value betting them on the end.

The only thing I'd do differently is fold pf. I can never find loose enough tables at 5/10 to make this a limp.

Tables were loose-ish, but there were a few players that played so horribly after the flop that this limp was fine. Worst case, I'm giving away a tiny bit of money, but I'm pretty sure I can show a positive return with this hand. Also, my personal mantra is "when in doubt, play" for two reasons.

1) I love to play flops, and turns. Just wanna keep getting better at it.

2) So many people use PT stats that I like my VP$IP to be as high as possible.

What other hands are you limping with from EP in these games?

What's your VPIP?

I don't use Ptracker anymore, so I dunno. Probably too high.

I limp in UTG/UTG+1 with ducks-77, KTs, QJs, TJs, 9Ts, QT. This is a newer development, and I've found I like it.

Looks fine, it's probably a good flop for you. If you're going to check raise the flop you have to bet the turn and give him a chance to fold his 2 overs or chase. If he raises the turn I fold.

I'm down.

I don't play many ring games, but when I do I find I'm folding a lot of hands up front. That's because I'm not used to limping first in. I think I'm going to change that.

6-max has made me more comfortable with the very marginal situations I used to avoid playing full games. I too, want to get better at post flop play.

I like all but QT.
btw, Does this mean you raise KT off ?

I think he forgot the s.

I don't play six max because I drink and play poker, and I do a little too much raising.

Start posting some EP ring hands your play or fold up front, and we can fuck around with them. I used to have a severe aversion to limping first in, but I've tossed a few hands in and it seems like I'm winning money with them in the right games.

RE: ACTUARY

Actuary, what's all this about raising with KTo? I don't think I play it until the hijack seat in a bad game.

Ice

Yup. Thanks screech.

Sorry

Ice

I was mislead by the lack of an "s".
We cool now.
