Exactly. I've started to limit my button raises to premium hands, Ax, Kx and junk. And I've been limping suited aces, connectors, gappers and unsuited connectors. Thoughts?
Same here. So far it is working well. The question becomes, where is your cut off. Like if you have KQs on the button with all folds, raise or call. Same hand but with limpers, raise or call? For the time being I am just mixing it up and maybe that is optimal.
