Re: Not raising Big pairs PF
Just don't file limping big PPs away for use at all! Keep that locked in the closet. you want to be raising these hands for several reasons:
1. value
2. value
3. value
4. people are gonna cold call a lot anyhow = more $$
Sure big PPs play better against fewer people, but don't take that the wrong way and just limp because a bunch of people are already in. Even if we happened to be playing 20 handed, and I'm in the BB w/ AA after the entire table limps, I still raise and it is for value.
BTW, live poker is so great because it is SOOOOO passive typically and you make a killing on the hands you win and usually will not get punished to bad win you lose.
Winning hands being big pots + losing hands being minimal investment = a good session.
