I'm just reviewing my monthly stats, and I checked how often I have raised with JJ-AA (the "RFI %" stat in Poker Tracker) The amounts are as follows:
JJ: 95%
QQ: 97%
KK: 95%
AA: 100%
Now, clearly, raising these hands is {acronym renton hates}. But should I be occasionally limping? Do I need to worry about this at all? I am only playing $50nl/pl right now so I'm not running into many poker brains.
I don't know if it's relevant - a very small sample size, 139 times where I have been dealt one of these four starting hands - but I am -0.15ptbb/100 with my high pps, so I am questioning certain strategy aspects.

limping is just gonna make -.15 into -.5
losing $ with those hands is more likely a combination of post flop mistakes and running bad.

at the stakes you play i would think everything should be 100% except maybe JJ which is like 99.5%.

i cant access PT right now, but i would guess my stats with JJ+ would be the exact same. I cant remember the last time i limped a premium hand.

why dont you up your raising % on some other stuff to get your JJ+ paid off?

LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.
Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!
