Re: Sometimes I hate 8-way action.
 

Hands I raise after 6 limpers to me in the SB:

AA-88
AKo
AKs-ATs
KQs-KTs
QJs-QTs
JTs
T9s

If opponents are stupid and easy to play against postflop and don't think enough:

77-55
98s
87s
65s

I pretty much never raise AQo here.

How could he not 3bet.

If he paid ANY attention at all to who is who in the game he wouldn't 3-bet but he doesn't, at least not much. I lost at least one bet for sure and maybe two but he looked so darned confident that I didn't raise. I did take a good moment to think about raising, though, and I couldn't figure out what hand he could have that I beat that didn't raise the flop. Know what I mean? If I were him and I'd flopped a set I'd be betting and raising right away. I would've raised pf w/ a high pair. The only thing he could've waited for the turn to raise was a flopped straight and even that hand should probably have raised the flop. I fully expected to be shown a straight and was frankly happy to win. Of course next time I'll c/r, get 3-bet, and he'll have me beat. That's the way the Universe works.

Sweet range imo.

I am inclined to raise nearly any four-straight suited connector in this spot, however. EASY 2 PLAY SIKK 2 PAY

Why make the pot bigger preflop with more hands vs stupid people who are easy to play against??
