    not really, ill limp weak stuff vs fish sometimes but that rare enough.

    *i was gonna say this in bracket in my OP but didnt think someone would point it out *
    Jman: every time the action is to you, it's an opportunity for you to make the perfect play.

    I have heard players better than me saying that limp/calling v players that are defending fairly wide when we have hands that are playable but can't call a 3b is a viable option. I have been experimenting with this with mixed results (slightly winning when BB checks / slightly losing when BB raises). I guess I am not the best at playing OOP against a pf raiser.

    edit: Have just rechecked my stats in these situations and although my results are pretty meh, it is better than I thought.
    -0.95bb/100 when I limp/call, as opposed to 12.11bb/100 when BB checks.
    In total this gives me +3.12bb/100, which is a hell of a lot better than the -50bb/100 for folding these marginal hands v an aggro BB.
