Just wanted to get a majority consensus on limping UTG in 6max with small pairs (55-). I assume most would say you should never limp first in in 6max.

Whilst i would almost always raise PPs from all positions, there are certainly some rare circumstances where open-limping with them might be acceptable.

I am curious as to whether, when people are raising with these pairs UTG in 6max they are calling a pot size 3bet or instafolding everytime? Is it entirely/partially opponent specific for you?

[/ QUOTE ]
it's mostly dependent on stack sizes (5-10 rule) and partially dependent on villain.

Would anyone consider 4betting?

[/ QUOTE ]

certainly, this is very opponent specific.

If you are folding to the 3bet do you feel you lose value by not getting opportunity for a set? Is the best play an 80/20 raise/fold type scenario?

1.no
2. lol no.

Please add in any other variables/ideas I may have missed. Cheers.
