Specifically talking button and cutoff what is your overlimping range behind say 2 or more limpers.

At the moment I pretty much only overlimp with baby pairs and small suited aces. Otherwise I'm coming in for a raise. Wondering what other hands I should add to my overlimping range. Suited connectors? Suited one gappers? Would love to hear what others are doing this with. Trying to open up my range in late postion.

really depends who is behind you and how likely the limpers are to call your iso.

Lets say there arent any aggressive players behind in the blinds and the limpers aren't going anywhere if you iso and are all stations who won't be folding to cbets. Your typical microstakes fish.

When I'm the CO or BTN, my range is very wide when it comes to limping in w/ other limpers in front of me.

Why not call w/ ish+ when others are limping in front of you?

I know limping is bad. I'm not talking about open limping or limping behind from early or middle position. There are obvious good spots to limp behind in the co or button where bloating the pot is foolish.

Yea, some people don't or can't read correctly. I'll go ahead & re-post what you wrote & highlight what you are stating & asking for the sake of others.

haha thanks suited.

So duggs you just fold your suited connectors, suited aces, and baby pairs from late postion facing multiple limpers? I didn't ask what to iso with. I already know what hands to isolate limpers with in late position.

Even with 2 limpers in front of me I'm iso'ing every PP and any suited ace. Only time I won't is if one of the limpers is prone to limp-raising. If there is only one limper I'll be iso'ing about 80% of my range. When there is more than one limper it all depends on what type of players they are and whether they will pay off in a spot where my hand connects well.

I suppose if its profitable to do at live cash, I can understand over-limping. The key word being profitable. Small PP's, Med. Suited Connectors could work.

Not sure I'd really like Ax for this, but then again I don't personally see much need for this anyway.

However, it is a fact that some live grinders tell me that they feel its just as easy if not easier to read and define hand ranges here. Specifically I'm told because ppl tend to then play their hand very face-up.

i only overlimp with small pairs. 8s or better i usually raise to take control and then play the postflop game....however the size of the raise against the limpers is very important as the blinds are still behind you and could have a hand that your pot forces them to push with....so I guess as with almost everything its situational and there are alot of factors that have to be accounted for

Everything in this game is so delicate. there is no easy answer. do your opponents limp junk, a polorized range? Do they ever limp reraise? How likely are the blinds to join or raise? Have you raised them already? Have you limped already? Did the limper lose or win the last hand? Are they aggressive or passive? Add all of these together and you will find some type of answer

Suited connectors and suited gappers that can straight, Suited Aces, and small pairs. Vs players who like to back raise I add pairs up to JJ. Usually I raise TT+, AJ+. Occasional raises with 88+, JTs+, & KQ.
