Some silly preflop questions
 
Do you guys like raising hands like KTs and QTs in EP? I mix it up, but Im leaning more towards limping because it seems like you only get action from hands that dominate yours(even more so if you have a very tight image)

I got a lot of crap from the table for this one, but Im sure it was a good call.

20/40 live

Im on the button in a kill pot. I won the last 2 hands(shocking) and Im the killer(I have to post $30).

I look down at 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

4 limpers, the SB raises, BB calls, I call, everyone else calls.

SB is a higher limit player, on tilt, and playing weak-tight. I know he has a big pair or AKs. Nothing else is possible. He flops a set, I flop open ended. Turn gets checked, I river my straight and scop a nice big pot.

I've never played in kill games before, but if I understand correctly, you were getting 13:1 on your money with a weak suited 3-spacer and the best position? Easy call.

Its a half kill. If you are playing 20-40, in a kill pot the limits are 30/60.

To have a kill pot a player must win 2 hands in a row and the 2nd pot must be bigger than 5 BB. The player who won the 2 pots in a row must then post an extra big blind and gets to act last preflop.

KTs and QTs do not play well out of position.

Kill hand - standard play for me. Meta value when you show down is fantastic, this is a good example of where you need to give action. The action you get in return is worth its weight in gold if you show the best hand on the river, the confused looks are priceless.

This is a pretty easy call. You should have said, "Well, at least you saved yourself some money by checking the turn."

not necessarily, many casinos the killer does not close the action, the kill is in turn
