Ive read a lot of Smashs Limit Hold Em posts and gotten a pretty good idea of what kind of starting hands to play.
Wanting to give Limit a try since it seems ppl are playing more tight at certain times of the day when im playing No Limit cash games.
Im just wondering if Axs is worth limping in with when playing Limit.

if you cant limp with Axs in a limit game, you have bad table selection.

yeah, I <3 Axs.
The key is being able to get away from it when you only hit a marginal piece of the flop--the ace but not much else, for instance.

It's ok to play it, and when you hit top pair, it's usually a check/call. This is why you try to avoid playing Axs in raised pots.

Well, I agree it's far from an automatic check/fold. But lots of people will get married to TPNK, in spite of post-flop action screaming "HELLO I HAVE YOU OUTKICKED AT THE VERY LEAST." Recognizing these situations is key.
