Re: 3 pair hand from wcoop
[ QUOTE ]
I would prefer leading at some point, probably the flop, possibly turn depending how aggr opponent is, and then making a decision if raised. The way you played it you stand to lose 100 BB in an unraised pot where you have 4 opponents. Villain could easily have a weak KKxx and limp.
I wouldn't recommend it but some players limp a lot of hands UTG.

i don't really believe in the "don't go broke in an unraised pot" maxim per se. the question to me is just, "is this situation worth investing 3 pot sized bets, and if so how should they go in?" generally, i think it is. if there's anything that bothers me about the hand, it's the extra 8k that i'll have to call off on top of the third bet when raised, since i'll usually be doing pretty poorly on that money. i'd prefer if the turn check-raise were closer to all-in.
and i did discount KK on account of villain limping on the button rather than from EP.
