Low Pairs + Dead Money =

[Snoogins47]

Hi folks, a friend of mine posted a hand he played yesterday, both to another discussion board, and to an IRC chat. I am not 100% sure of the stakes, because he didn't specify... I think the hand is interesting regardless of that, though, and I'd like to open it up here and see what some of the STT whizzes think.

15/30 level, all players are >1300 TC, except for our hero, who has 960.

Hero is UTG+1 with 5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

UTG folds, Hero limps, 1 Fold, 1 Limp, MP raises to 120, Button Calls, SB calls, BB calls, <u>Hero is All In for 960</u> ...

We all know the basic idea behind this sort of play. It generated a lot of heat discussion, and I think it's good to get some more opinions.
