Small PP early: Preflop
 
Hi,

I really wonder what i should do with little pocket pairs (from 22 to 99) preflop early ?

I think most of the time i simply call. It does not cost much and the reward can be big but on the long run, is that +EV ? If not, what should i do ?
Thank you.

Edit: More info:
If its raised behind me, ill call a raise of one BB no matter what. Two BB or more: Depending on the number of callers behind.

What do you think ?

22 is very different to 99.
Early, as in early in the SNG or early position?

Since you asked in the other thread, here you really show that you're not very good.

I am not.
Yeah i know 22 and 99 are quiet different but in the first three seats with "deep" stack (blind 10-20, 1500in chips) i think i almost play them the same: call.
Now i fold from time to time too. But i have no idea whats the best play.
Thank you.

I don't think 22-99 are that different, basically you farm sets/fold on flop otherwise.

I sometimes openfold the tiny pairs in EP, always limping behind other limpers before the blinds get 50-100 or 75-150. I will also always open limp 77+ for low blinds

Your trolling of this forum is getting pretty lame.

I would open shove. That way you can collect the blinds a high percentage of the time and the times you do get called you can always win and have a stack of 3k to start.
