Limping ranges vary a lot with Villain tendencies the only hand type that almost always prefers to limp is off-suited trash.
Hey,
Thanks for your reply man, really appreciate it. When I very first started playing online, I used to play a SB limp strategy, it just seemed to make more sense to me intuitively at the time, although I wasn't very good, and didn't know any theory to back it up.
Then of course I began to follow the heard mentality with the open min-raise.
So now I am playing again ( just started back with Hu hypers and spins ), I am trying to understand the theory behind limping from the SB this time around.
At the moment, through using tools like pio, hrc and crev, I am coming to the conclusion that it seems +ev ( not sure if max ev ) to be limping pre-flop value hands ( if there is such a thing ), with a certain frequency as well as using some of them for min-raise open, in order to be able to limp such a wide range, at such a high frequency.
In your opinion, does this sound about right to you? Although as you have stated, it is also vilain dependent too.
Many thanks.
