    Default limpz and pimps

    in fr there seems to be sooooo much more limping that the first dude with a real hand must be scared of set mining.

    so questions:
    1) can we limp/call suited connectors in any pre CO positions profitably given ppl are likely to be set scared on the right board? seems like flushy only board too obvious not enough equity, but flushy + gutshot OK
    or just gutshot on rainbow board, yay? seems super strong on rainbow to make big flop raise

    1a) do we ever limp anything profitably? seems like we have some subterfuge lines available


    this part is especially general so feel free to expound

    just kind of a theory type Q, say two ppl limp, you have QQ/KK/AA and the board is all undercards on rainbow board

    you, OOp bet and get raised.. do you?
    1) snap fold
    2) call and check/call or check/fold turn based on what appears (explain)

    you, IP, get c/r
    1 " "
    2 call and reevaluate turn

    It depends. Limp/call lines are usually way more transparent than opening yor entire range with a raise, but if there is no one at the table who is going to able to exploit you/ hand read post flop then limping is probs more optimal. Limping things like SCs oop is usually really difficult as it can be reaally tough to play draws OOP even in multiway pots.

    Why are you limping behind 2 players with QQ+? There are so many different factors including reads, where they limped from, raise size I can't really give an answer.... In general obviously you don't want to go crazy in a multiway limped pot with one pair so fold/call to maybe fold turn if you think he's FOS is best
