limp raising aces
« on: June 06, 2009, 14:35:25 PM »
I only recently started playing full tilt and all i see is limp raising AA all the time.

where did this fashion come from?

the last time i had KK so even though I strongly suspected aces, i couldnt really fold.

just getting boring now as I have been hit with it 3 times, and each time I had a hand AK or KK.

is it possible to get away?

I assume these are STTs or MTTs.

I think in some situations you can get away and others you cant.

Stick a few hands up (given it "happens all the time") and see what people think

Limping Aces can be pretty profitable on an active table - hence the "fashion"

I got knocked out of the £50 Freeze-Out (at the International Club) the other night like this ... QQ vs AA

Of course today I limp with mine got raised and pushed all in only to lose AA vs QQ (to the flush!)

Super sick.
