CAN ANYONE COME UP W/ A REASON WHY LIMPING HANDS LIKE KJ/KT IN EP IS GOOT?!?!?!?

[/ QUOTE ]

Say you are at a table full of xx/0 calling stations who will call any pre-flop raise and call down with any piece of the board. (Everest NL25 has a lot of these tables.)

On such tables raising KJ/KT pre is just wasting money because you will always get a multiway pot and won't be able to take it down with a cbet. Folding these hands in EP is an option but if you can get in for 1bb guaranteed you can play these hands (and many others) just for 2pair/straight value.

You can also play these hands for TP value against a table of retarded short stacks. Raising would commit you too early then and limping becomes an option.

k well a friend of mine says he always limps these hands in EP and only explaination he had was to see a cheap flop...tryed to tell him that if hes gona play those hands in EP raising>>limping. But your explanation does make since in those situations but 4 the most part raising is still better than limpin but 4 some reason he will not come to terms w/ this. Oh well.

Yes, my explanations were geared towards these specific situations. You will not often find yourself in these situations so raising or folding are usually way better than limping.

OK, this is the very next hand and I decide that he is full of it. But I was in for a surprise. It all turns out well, though.

He later claimed to have had a set of 9s in the first hand.
