Default Re: Cold call Preflop

Hey guys
Whats your coldcalling range on the button and cutoff for:

1) One or no caller
2) Two or more callers

You are missing too many factor to have a meaningful discussion on this topic.

Among the relevant factors are the following.

[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]the preflop raiser's likely range,
[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]effective stacks and likely SPRs if blinds either call or don't call,
[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]tendencies of the blinds to come along or try a squeeze play on the initial raiser,
[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]chances that the raiser will c/f if he missed the flop or flops an overcard to his pocket pair,
[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]chances that the riser will c/b once, but c/f when he misses the flop or there is a scary turn,
[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]how many times the size of the preflop pot the raiser will risk on top pairs and overcards (implied odds)
[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]what the raiser thinks about you and your style of play,
[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]what are the reverse implied odds of your own hand (i.e. AQo/AJo/ATo vs a tight raiser might get you stuck for a good chunk of money post flop when an ace hits and he has AK).

Also, your range in the CO should be a lot narrower than on the button. Button and CO are not the same. It is a big deal that when you act in the CO there is still one guy behind you. If he chooses to play, then you are still OOP for the rest of the hand.
