I can only tell you my perspective on the matter and alot of people may say I am a fool but after ten years of playing limit for a living and the last 4 of those primarily playing online I am telling you that playing such hands as QJs, KQs or not, AJo in EP will lead to no good or VERY MINIMAL gains at best. If perhaps I was playing just one table and had an extremely good read on the others I would loosen up a tad more but I can't say that I honestly have a precise read on all the players when I am playing 4 or 5 tables at once and therefore I accept that I may be giving up just a miniscule +EV from folding these hands but it keeps me out of bad situations I believe in the long run.
Just because you are at a loose passive table doesn't mean that a couple of people can't wake up with hands and punish you when you limp with QJs. I just choose the path that keeps me ahead of the field in the vast majority of situations and that leads to profitable play at online limit holdem. In the last 3 days just as an example I have posted wins of 52 BB, 107 BB and 69 BB. If my play is faulty I am damn well willing to accept the results:) Winning play at low to moderate limits in online limit holdem requires no imagination, just discipline to play extremely good cards and at least half ass ability to play well after the flop.Statistics: Posted by piersmajestyk — Sat Dec 04, 2004 2:32 pm
