Looking down at MONSTERS in the low blinds

[bluedevil907]

So, how do you guys maximize chips off AA-QQ at the 2nd or 3rd blind levels where everyone is looking to get in cheap and destack someone with any two cards?

A big raise is always a good move, but then you run the risk of telling everyone you have a monster since you don't want those 89s to limp in on you and catch a hidden killer. The AI push doesn't get called nearly enough to make the move profitable. A limp just asks for a suck-out or check/fold by worse hands. You want someone to get dragged into the pot, but you don't want anyone seeing the flop for cheap.

Low blinds, you're in MP, you can expect a couple limpers, no reads, what's your play?

Raise and don't be a nofoldemholdem fool. How much?...hm...for example with bb 30 and 2 limpers say u are late position, I'd raise to 150. No limpers, raise to 90. EP maybe a checkraise if the table is aggressive, otherwise a big raise. Maybe to 150.

Raise. The amount of the raise depends on how much the table is loose/tight. You want 1-2 callers
