Pre flop, PL 10, raise or limp pre flop?

[loosemmjan]

New here....

No reads on the table...

I figured raising preflop was better then limping. Your thoughts?

On the flop should I lead for a pot size bet to rep the Q?
I didn't becuase I wasn't heads up.

Flame away, I have to get better at this game... I haven't learned to hate it yet.

thanks

Good raise preflop. Standard check fold after the flop. You have no reason to carry on with the hand after it comes QQ7.
You're playing at a limit where it's all about the showdown value of your cards. No point bluffing because lots of people play these limits for fun, they don't care enough about a dollar to fold to your bluff.

I like the preflop raise... after two Queens fall on the flop, check/fold for anything other than a min (10c) bet.

preflop is good. betting this flop is crazy, good check. fold the turn you don't beat anything and your draw sucks.

i don;t like the pre-flop raise. It does not make any sense to me. I may raise with it UTG or something to throw some people off if I hit the hand, but raising in that sitation has no value, to me. Call and see what happens.

Preflop raise is fine. You get a few ace-x suited folds occasionally, and build a pot with a premium hand. Also players might assume he has aaxx or kkxx. This means getting stacks.
