Re: LO8 B&M question
should you be raising A2 suited everytime in a low-limit B&M game? No, for most of the reasons Buzz gave.
However "should you raise A2 suited with a table full of limpers in front of you on the button in a low-limit O8 game?" Absolutely. You have an equity edge and want to build a pot. You don't want to worry about knocking out the blinds since you will be collecting more bets from everyone else. Also, since everyone is calling the flop, no need to worry about building a pot so big that you are pricing bad draws into calling.
Low limit 08 tends to be a "nuts-nuts" game. You have draws at both. You want to get money into the pot. You will get calls from A3s for low and king-high flushs much more than at lower levels. Definitely raise.
