Re: AJo OOP--multiple limpers
Im raising 0.3 here. And betting almost all flops with 2 villians in it.

Re: AJo OOP--multiple limpers
Raise for sure. You don't want a scenario where you lead out a flop like J67 w/ two suits and one of the limpers reraises you. With the right board texture, you should be able to C-bet and take the pot if you miss as well.

Re: AJo OOP--multiple limpers
Is it too nittish to want to fold here? You're OOP with an easily dominated hand that has little chance of hitting a monster. I just think there's too much of a chance that we'll get 3+ callers and that's a poor spot to be in even if we hit top pair.
Also if i'm going to raise here it'll be to ~0.45 to give the limpers poor odds to call. |
Re: AJo OOP--multiple limpers
yes, too nittish to fold. raise it up.

Re: AJo OOP--multiple limpers
Raise it up.
Be careful if MP comes along. Against UTG and/or Button I commit whenever I hit top pair because they are so short. |
Re: AJo OOP--multiple limpers
I look at it this way, if you're a great oop post flop player with 2-3 callers, go ahead and raise. (5NL is full of calling stations who don't know how/when to fold, so I dont like this option)
If you want to play it safe and fold then this should be an acceptable option here. From experience, if you get 2 or 3 callers to a PFR, you will get a c-bet caller on ANY flop about 70% of the time. In other words, if you don't want to find yourself in a potentially marginal situation (especially since we will be OOP), a fold is more than fine. I posted the thread to get some discussion going on this type of situation, because I think we run into it often and find ourselves in sticky post flop spots that we're not comfortable with. |
Re: AJo OOP--multiple limpers
With these kind of hands in SB or BB with a couple of limpers i like to make a nice big raise 7,8 or 9x BB basically enough to fold everyone out, which is usually what happens.
If i get a caller im betting flop everytime to give him a chance to fold. |
Re: AJo OOP--multiple limpers
I usually raise 4BB + 1BB per limper
Most of the time they'll all fold tho |

[/ QUOTE ] your goal for a preflop raise is to get it HU, not to get everyone to fold... I mean heck, if you have pocket aces, do you want everyone to fold ur raise? NO! it's the same mentality. you want villain to call your raise (extra cash) and then own him with your sexy postflop play. |
