Raising 22 utg profitable??

[cfb1739]

No, itis not limited to 22. I would consider anything less than 66 to be facing the same problem.

This is an excellent point. I would never open limp UTG for the reasons you mentioned. You don't want to have to limp AA so that your opponents won't know that the open limp is weak. My feeling is that it is probably best to fold this UTG.

Is this really only limited to 22 or are we talking about 22-55ish. Aren't these hands essentially the same OOP?

Agree, these hands are pretty much the same. Would be nice to see some more stats from these hands too.

i have never ever not open raised a pocket pair in 6max in prob 500k hands.

what TWP said, it's a bad table if it isn't profitable.

200 instances this month of 22-55 UTG, PFR/RFI = 100%

0.90 BB/hand

But with games like the 2/4 in Full Tilt, isn't it just spew to raise small pp's there UTG? You're getting 3bet/squeezed so often there making it really difficult to proceed in the hand and make a profit.

small sample size, but last 33k hands i'm in the green with every PP from UTG.

i, and many other very very solid players, dont open 22-55 utg. but everybody wants to because they think setmining oop is awesome.
