Re: 99 UTG ... Mike Sexton says mid PP are hard to play... I agree
I don't know. I think limping with a mid PP UTG is an okay play. If you are in a mutli-way pot you hope for a set or you are out... If it gets heads up in a sitaution like the one presented it is usually not to hard to play.
If I c/c flop he bets 4.50. Then turn pot is $15, so figure he bets 8-12, we'll assume $10. Now in order to call here I have to invest just as much as in the flop but I risk peeling an other card and having an A or K or somehting hit.
The c/r usually ends the hand which is fine by me, cause I am not strong enough to go to war. The c/c line could have me facing really tough decision on the river.
True, I am luckly he played it soooo passive but if I met any real resistance I think it becomes an easy fold.
no?
