    Default Qs: PP PF limp seems better 200NL

    Before you read my question is pretty basic and I have only posted the whole HH in case you spot anything else.

    Question is: If both limpers are 40/12/2 and both have calling station type tendencies. Is it profitable to PFR medium/low PPs or is it better to limp all these? Only when I PFR automatically like i usually do i i thought;

    -likelyhood of getting 2 callers. high
    -likelyhood of c/b getting respect on near any board
    -it would be harder but not impossible to build the pot up even if its unraised PF
    -i could be building the pot up PF but can only c/b when i hit a set, this cant be good right?

    In general, with 1 limper I'd raise, with 2 limpers or more I'd call. Especially given your reads. If villains are calling stations, then be less inclined to (semi)-bluff because they work less often and you just could sethunting cheap and get lots of value when hit.

    HH:
    Do you suspect you flop bet being a value bet or bluff?
    Betting the turn is ok.
    I think you should call the river, but it's close.

    Always raise, usually c-bet, often fire a second barrel. And this is a good turn for a second barrel. Just b/c someone has calling station tendencies doesn't mean they'll call down with anything. They have to hit the flop somehow and the majority of the time, they won't.

    Auto-raise in positon. I definitely bet that turn.
