Default Re: 50NL: Isolating Limpers

I think (in general) that this is really table dependent and player dependent also. You'd like to be raising fewer limpers (1 or 2) and preferably, those with a propensity towards limping and either folding to your raise, or folding the flop to your cbet. Nitty players in the blinds help as well (as opposed to ones who may know what you're doing and reraise you).

I've also seen much more limp/reraising at 50NL than I did at 25NL so make notes on those players who do.

In your example, I think KJs is an excellent hand to limp along with here. It's likely that at least one of the limpers is going to come along for the ride with that raise size. (If you're going to raise, raise to 4). Also limping along keeps your investment minimal in case one of the blinds decides to get frisky (or picks up a really good hand) and makes a huge raise.
