Thanks for posting that article, pockett. I've actually been playing some limit recently, so I've been thinking about strategy. I think Sklansky might recommend this strategy as well, but I'm not sure about that. Sklansky thinks that you play winning poker by getting other players to make mistakes and keeping the pot small initially seems to do that.

My NL game has been in a funk of late. I'm more or less breaking even. I think the limit play, however, is helping my NL game. It's harder to get a read in limit, and that seems to make me pay closer attention. Also value betting on the end depends on the read, and I think I miss a lot of opportunities in NL to make that small value bet on the end.

Aha! Misspelled and all. I was thinking you had posted this more recently but I dug this up from page 6. Mind the dust!

I have seen alot of writing on limping in with AK in both limit and in NL. I see alot of value to it if there are not too many in the hand. it disguises stregnth and probably helps to get you paid off. It also allows you to dump the hand more cheaply if it doesn't hit the flop. In limit it takes the value out for drawing hands, in no limit it helps you trap.

Yeah, but here's what I'm thinking, if you are up against good players, then some deception is necessary. Against bad players, they aren't paying attention. They just look at their own cards. They'll call down with tp/nk, so your AK will get paid off anyway. Preflop though, as in this article, if you raise, you get at least 2 more small bets in there, prolly 3 with the SB. The fish is calling with or without the odds, so don't you make more money long term by raising preflop? And isn't that better EV, by definition?

Don't know how to post here anymore but I wanted you all to check out my Questions printed in Cardplayer in Scott Fischmans column. Pretty Cool.
