anything reasonably playable for sure.
wouldn't raise 27o there if that answers your question.

Im not raising any two cards there. Hands that im calling with normally, are the hands i probably raise in this situation.
Abbaddabba
I think i'd raise any two suited cards here, any two cards over 7, any pair and any ace.

Posting in the CO and checking when it's folded to you is huge sign of weakness. There're nearly 2 big bets of potentially dead money in there.

I prefer any two cards above ten. You get yourself in trouble more often then not, playing any two cards above seven. Getting all of them to fold is rarely the case. Your postflop play has to be excellent

not sure if i'd raise with 7Jo or 28s, but i basically agree. depending on the site and limit, you might expect a raise to get you heads-up, or get it 4-way. i think it would partially depend on the posters - if they just sat down and posted their first hands, i might expect them to call and raise my requirements a bit. however if they've been waiting a few hands to post in position, i'd raise since they'd fold their blind junk OOP.

at very low limits where i expect multiple callers, i'd raise the requirements a bit above what you stated. certainly though any ace, any king, any pair, and any decent suited or reasonably connected cards can be raised.

and to clarify, there are no hands to limp with.

why?

Yeah, this looks like a great table.

Weak/tight's are great to play against, if they sit far enough on that extreme.

The fact that there are two posters who check when it's folded to them, and fold to a button raise despite being paid 5.5:1... and in the case of hte CO, has it guaranteed to be heads up... wow. That's tight.

You've gotta wonder if they both had 7/2off, or something.



Here's another interesting question.

If you're on the button in this situation, what is your 3bet range?
