Don't overplay big hands. The strongest starters in limit holdem' are suited connectors.

Ok susited connectors gotcha

that's not correct, of course. Your winnings will largely come from big hands like AA, KK. But suited connectors go way up in value, small pairs largely go down in value.

lol uhhh.... ok now lost :P

you still get 2 cards and there are 5 communities cards, what would you rather have, AA or a suited connector?

AA and KK are still the best hands to have ofc, just make sure you raise/reraise/cap to make others pay to try and catch their draws. The reason suited connectors go up in value is because you will often have the correct pot odds to chase your draws (if you have 4 of a suit by the flop for example). Suited connectors play best in multiway pots (common in limit). Low pairs go down in value because you need huge implied odds to play them, and you don't get that in limit.

yeah, thin value is pretty crucial.

Keep in mind I just click buttons while playing LHE.

Don't ask the dealer to count the pot if you can't decide whether to invest 1 bet into an 18 bet pot

Well thats the thing. In limit everyone obviously chases because they get their moneys worth. Cant bluff anyone out of a hand, tried it failed 80 out of 90 times hahah But Betting your draws is a great way to build a pot because players assume you just have a made hand and they think that they have a better one. But this is all specualtion from 1 session.

i dont understand playing suited connectors in limit because even if you hit your hand you dont seem to ever get payed off, if the guy raises the river, you reraise him a bet, he calls, and thats it

Low SC maybe but the thing with high SC is that in a MW pot its virtually impossible to push you off a draw.
