Subject, Pocket pairs.



what is the highest PP you will raise with in EP, MP, LP and/or blinds


reason i ask this, im finding alot of players on 2/4 tables on PP raising preflop with 66 in all positions, its driving me nuts to put them on hands.

How many players are in the pot?
What are your chances of winning the blinds or taking it down unimproved with a flop/turn bet?

sometimes i will raise 66 in LP if i think i can either steal the blinds or take down a small 2- or 3-way pot by betting into weakness on the flop. i am simply playing my position and betting on the fact that each of my opponents will miss the flop 2/3 of the time.

but i won't do this multiway or in EP/MP. no way. especially if the table is loose. in those cases i'm limping as cheap as possible in multiway pots to shoot for a rare set.

i seem to get this alot.. someone raises UTG, gets maybe one or two callers, plays aggressive through the hand, then flips over a pair of 6's unimproved.

and ive been folding to this alot preflop because UTG raises usually mean huge pairs.
