Yeah, I play for stacks with shortie here too.

[martindcx1e]

I usually fold KQo UTG in a full ring game. I actually have no idea how much being 7 handed changes things. Thoughts on this anyone? But after the flop ya I would definitely get the money in against shorty.

I usually fold KQo UTG in a full ring game.

Meh, I've given up on being the pre-flop police. I just don't care and if you play well enough compared to your opponents it's not a big deal.

Meh, I've given up on being the pre-flop police. I just don't care and if you play well enough compared to your opponents it's not a big deal.

It does kinda get old doesn't it? Even when someone asks for advice that doesn't include "Fold Pre-Flop" they still get that. Vinterriket, more power to you if you are able to avoid troublesome decisions with that hand.

[littlewashu]

maybe pre flop raise here what do you think guys

[Vinterriket]

if the table seems passive preflop with not much raising I will limp UTG with hands like KQ, AT, AJ, etc

And sometimes rather than limping I will raise these hands. Sometimes I'll fold, it's just based on the feel of the table.
