No, given stacks and two limps from utg 1 and 2 i dont think I raise here either.  I'm purely set mining or hoping someone raises behind so I can isolate jam or jam on a supposed non threatening board IP.

Thats just me though.  I do raise if sat deeper though.

roftw :P

grantorino

just fold flop when one of the limpers leads into you

rancid

In this case you got it spot on, i think most of time you will be behind

corn_rat22

Most of the time, i fold the flop. but this is player dependant, and the fact that its a BH people love getting their chips in, but what i'm thinking is, how often are hero calls when your 95% sure your winning profitable?

grantorino

If you are 95% sure you are winning calling will be profitable

The thing about calling here is stuff like JT and spades are flipping with you(if hes 2 overs to the 8, he'll usually have 1), while if he has a Q or a 9 you are crushed. If you think he sticks it in with almost any 2 calling is ok
