Limped pots from the BB (NL25)
The situation I'm referring to is when you get dealt crap in the BB but see a flop for free with any number of limpers.
Currently my strategy here is a c/f basis if I don't hit anything, and play 100% passively if there is a bet. Basically I will not call unless I have odds or ever try to make a play from this position. I'm wondering if never making a move from here is a leak at the lower levels. Is there ever a situation where I should fire a 3/4 pot bet on a bluff here, with any number of other limpers and any type of flop? The only situation I can think of is when Qxx rainbow flop comes, because then you fold out people who are limping with Axs and Kxs, and most middle and lower pocket pairs because of the queen (unless they've setup). (By the way I feel that players limp and cold call at NL25 with Pocket Pairs about 95% of the time). Thoughts? |

Its 25nl. Play ABC poker. Don't try to run big bluffs or any bluffs really for that matter. There is no point, People can't fold. EVER!

No it's not a leak. You shouldn't be betting in a multiway limped pot with nothing because it's basically 100 % -EV. Besides, the pot is usually way too small to make it a profitable play.

Thanks for the fast responses. Multiway definitely -EV, and the POT SIZE is probably the biggest factor making this -EV.
PLEASE Keep posting to keep playing ABC poker every time I ask a question that is above NL25. It doesn't annoy me. Thanks! |

Another thing I just thought of though...
I CB a LOT. Meaning that if I raise PF in position and the flop is checked to me, I bet. Of course when the pot gets multiway I tend to CB less, but this is still a "bluff" in the strictest sense of the word. I certainly don't consider this a leak, as I have won a LOT of money doing this. (Then again I only have 3600 hands logged, and could be running very hot). Is this "bluff" contained in ABC poker? |
