Limp-minraises always worry me. Except when I have KK, pooooosh!

[Kibby]

They say never say never. . . I'm saying never. KK PF = ALLIN ALL DAY EVERYDAY. Accept if you're against me, then i would recommend folding it because I always have bullets.

um, never ever [censored] fold KK here. I would say don't fold KK in general in a 6.50 SNG. initial raise should be around t200 (3BB + 1BB per limper), not t380. Shove over the reraise.

So I take your advice: one player limps in EP, folds to me on the button, I raise to t200 with KK. Let's say a limper calls with 55, flops a set, and stacks me. The limper called t160 more to win the t1300 i had left, meaning he got 8.125-1 odds on his call, which is just about profitable for him.

You can't extrapolate the results of a hand to determine his odds of calling your raise pre-flop. You're making all kinds of wild assumptions, as if he knew you held KK, etc, etc. He doesn't know you hold KK, so even if he flops a set he doesn't know you're going to dump your stack on him.

i don't understand this OP
why do you make BIGGER raises than standard with the intention to fold to pushes one would call normally?
it's just nonsense

[mattnxtc]

You cant really fold, but i think of the hands you see its either AA or AK.

[typically]

Even with a range is AA,QQ,AK, this is a profitable call, and at this level I see things like 55+ AT+ and the odd J2o (seriously). Just call and curse loudly at AA.

Try not to see demons and monsters in every big raise. AA,KK,AK are all in his range but so is a load of other junk I expect. I really wouldnt be surprised to be shown JJ here. Get em in - ALWAYS. NEVER FOLD KK TO A RERAISAE IT IS A HUGE LEAK.
