What do you raise with???

Postby The A Train » Sat May 07, 2005 3:04 am

Just wondering what people raise with? I nearly always raise with AA, KK, QQ and AK and in late position like to be the first raiser with JJ, TT, 99, AQ and KQ. Looking at my stats on PT my preflop raise stats are 3.82 and coming down. Does this sound about right or should I be raising more pre flop? If so with what???

My raising is more dependent on players..

If I have AT OTB and 2 players who raise 7%+ of hands have limped I will raise to 4BB. If a tight player who never raises has limped I will just call. A supertight limper I might even fold (though this is unlikely with position).


I raise it it pretty heavily from LP with any hands that doesn't want to be multiway. I raise about 9% overallI think. On an aggressive table I will EP limp with AA,AK or KK but otherwise will raise up the good stuff 3-5BB depending on no. of limpers

I will raise AQo from EP but limp with AJ, KQ unless in LP. I will raise PP from EP down to about TT - and I raise them strongly (4-5BB) to dissuade Ace-junk callers.

I dont understand the raising w/suited conectors, isnt it the goal with these hands to hit draws, strghts,flshs and win big pots. I would hate to be reraised by doin it in EP. Can someone expand on this stratagy.
