hi all,

just a general question.........

all players still have starting stacks - no reads - just an average say $5 - $20 game


9 / 10 seater

SNG level 1 or 2 - 99 UTG - raise fold or limp.

i can make a case for all three , but whats the general idea?

i guess the same can be said for 88 an TT?

Cheers

Jas

Swinebag:
I agree that you can make a case for all 3

I generally prefer the limp in a STT and will fold to a raise in levels 1 and 2.

same for 88. I should probably do the same for TT, but I think I tend to overplay this hand early in STTs.

I would still raise as level 1 its still relativley cheap- if you get reraised you can fold comfortable in the knowledge your beat

trouble is you"re almost always gonna get a call cos it"s cheap, then you have to play the flop oop with a marginal hand.

i would limp and set mine, or fold pre to any raise unless multiple callers to give some implied value
