George2Loose:
Honestly Louis you"re much better off folding this crap pre even deep.

mal666:
Yeah, huge huge leak.

Honeybadg:
... so back to the question ... how many BBs each before you call?

It"s not a leak at 1000BB - and probably not at 300BB (or less) ... the Button doesn"t always have a big pair ...

It actually gets worse the deeper you get.

Devils Advocate Hat On:.............


If you are only playing very small volume then you will rarely see the error of playing hands like this OOP (providing you have decent post flop skills), so it does feel correct to play any two cards. In fact you could extend this to limp calling from any position and flatting behind every raise.

I remember reading about Alan Mansbridge winning GUKPT Walsall last year and the stick he got from a lot of blonde members for his constant "unprofitable peeling" and subsequent "getting there".

[   ] I"m sure he was gutted about his poor play as he banked his 40 large


My hat on:

You will lose more in small pots (and the odd big pot) than you will ever gain in big pots (and the odd small pot) playing hands like this out of position
