$5+0.50 Beginners Stuff

[vers]

I think raising is pretty bad here, our hand isn't that good and it's very early. I wouldn't even be limping in here either. If it was suited I would think about limping, but even then I think it's marginal.

This is what I was thinking after the fact as well.

Calling looks ok for me me from the CO / btn. Marginal , though.

Title says beginners stuff. With that in mind its probably best to just fold preflop since this hand is marginal at best by experienced players.

I don't think it matters either way, but I would be more inclined to limp here but raise to 4x if it were 25/50 because the stacks with these blinds set up really bad if you raise and flop top pair and very good for a raise/cbet in the other case. I think with position this isn't really a marginal hand but the difference in equity is so small between the three options that if you don't feel comfortable with it you can just fold.

This is fine so is raising folding QKs here would suck.
