raise pre-flop

really? even after someone limped in? I'm not a big fan of JQos, but it is short handed....I wouldnt know what to do PF. Normally I would just limp. What does everyone else think?

I usually like to raise this with favorable position in a short-handed game, but it honestly doesn't really matter what he does preflop. Raising has its benefits, and limping has its benefits. It's mostly just a matter of personal preference (limping keeps the pot small, while raising builds the pot with a marginal hand, raising will sometimes fold out a button who would've otherwise limped, limping allows the button and blinds to play cheaply, etc, etc).

Postflop, this is totally standard.

Sorry... I should preface this. I actually know BEANS about 6max, I hope by posting crazy ideas people will shoot them down.

But seriously... most of these guys don't even have any kind of stack for implied odds limping with QJ. I just make it a buck on principal. Maybe if you were s000ted you could limp.

raising in position is almost always better than limping in position
