Default Re: limpers & button

[ QUOTE ]

(all 9 handed)
--------------------
Hand 1:
Preflop: Hero is button with 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
5 limpers, Hero calls

You need to hit a seven to win this. Calling will bring in many high cards that can make top pair and pay you off. Raising isn't going to make any of them fold. You folding would be a sin against nature.
--------------------
Hand 2:
Preflop: Hero is button with 10[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
4 limpers, Hero calls

Beautiful. Suited connectors, relatively big. Will win you a lot of money if you hit. Shouldn't raise, can't fold. Folding would be like stealing from orphans.
--------------------
Hand 3:
Preflop: Hero is button with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
4 limpers, Hero folds/raises

You could make second-best here a lot of times. If you're going to play, you'd have to raise. Fold might be the best play -- depending on your reads. Calling makes Baby Jesus cry.

Hand 4:
Preflop: Hero is button with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
4 limpers, Hero calls.

[i]If this was KQs raise. KJs is good and worth a call for its good suited/moderate connected/moderate big card value. Raising is better than folding. Folding is like Keanu Reeves in "A Walk In The Clouds"[i]
