So A5s, A8s
I've heard that limping with drawing hands pf can be profitable-
Am I giving away too much limping wit. drawing hands and low pp?
Should I possibly be raising with Ax suited at certain times?
If I am faced with standard raise behind me (3-4x bb)- what shud i do??
Talkin full ring here- advice appreciated-  |

Limping with low pp is profitable just because you can make so much when you hit a set. Especially if theres alot of other limpers.
I think AXs isnt because the only flop I'd be comfortable with is a flush. Even if a A comes up you are likely chasing someone with a higher kicker. |

i agree with smooth - you have no real value on tp because if you get any kind of action, youre beat - never call a raise with Axs...
BUT if you happen to have it in late position and its folded to you its OK to try and take the blinds down - just dont call a reraise |

| Also, a set is a disguised hand. You are much less likely to get paid off if you hit the flush. |

its ok if you play postflop well enough to know when tpnk is good and when it isn't.
Axs is a great hand for loose agressive play because you flop pair+flush draw a lot and can push people around with your big draw. |

| Just remember post flop why you enterd the pot in the first place. Don't get attached to Ax when you pair the ace, you need at least 2 pair or a good draw. And don't get married to Small PP with overs on the board, your playing these for sets. |

If that is true then you better not play them.
Axs is usually an auto-raise for me, unless I am in the blinds with many limpers, or unless I've been raising too much so that I don't get credit for it anymore.. but that is 6max. |

I always play Axs, limping in all but the last two positions, where I will try to steal the blinds (and would do the same w/ Axo). If called in the latter situation, I will usually continue bluffing on the flop.
As for hitting an ace, I will bet to see where I'm at, giving up the hand if raised or called. |
