ive been giving limping a go its so much fun its like going back to your childhood again. ur like "OOOOOOOO IM LIMPING!!!! WOOP WOOP!.
u can hear the whole table go "OH SHIT, he just limped!" after having a near 100% open raise 2.5-4xbb tendency with any hand given the right position.
i even....wait for it.... smooth called aces.....earlier
i know! it scared the shit out of me. i was like this is so bad.
then i earned an extra bet on the button (who later folded) after i battered the shit out of some monkey open raising a blatent OOOO IVE GOT TOP PAIR "I BET", scuse me heres 25bbs down ur throat, oh wait thats your whole stack "OOOPS!" when i flipped the aces i swear i could hear the table spurt expletives at my deception.
slightly passive play with the intent of going absolutely nuclear when u have a clear read is great fun.
having said that the ones that i really love to get revenge on tho are the limped aces reraise all in gimps.
i REALLY REALLY hate those little twerps.
u can almost hear the cogs whiring as they spring their trap and i have them covered 5-1 in an MTT.
i call just to bust em so they allow me to play my agro game.
its harsh, seemingly negative ev, psychologically driven not math driven and all the other stuff. but as far as im concerned the sooner that little git gets off my table and out of everyones hair the better. they make it so hard to isolate weak players, get value from suited broadways, trying to isolate to get heads up with the intent of set mining all sorts of really valuable plays that ur on edge to do and fear for your stack if u do them if that person has limped the hand.
in hindsight having thought about it. ill only raise heavy enough, say KK QQ JJ 10 10 that i put myself in just such a position that its almost always a pot committing call and so close to mathematically correct for me to call a limp raise all in. this almost makes my raise the right play and the call the right play. AHHA thatd be why i have such a good record versus these little monkeys. WINNAR.
