Default Re: When do I raise my QQ on a ultra-loose table?

If you're not going to raise QQ then what are you going to raise?

Yes, QQ is a raising hand. But as Jennifer Harman writes in SS2, sometimes, in the blinds, you might not want to raise after a lot of limpers because you're not going to drive anyone out and then on the flop, when you do try to drive someone out with your bet, they're getting better odds.

I've read Harman's section a few times and feel that she's assuming a higher standard of players than you'll find at micro-limits. In her kind of games, I think people limp with decent speculative hands, not crap like Kxo. You've said that these guys are very loose so they could have anything under the sun. QQ has a big equity edge against these type of players; raise it up.
