Hero ($26,050 / 44bb) - VPIP of 22% .. When blinds were 150/300 I bet Js5s UTG to 777 and BTN shoved all in for $1030, called and we both had same had. Chop it up, someone put a surprised emoticon in the chat. Still seemed to get a decent amount of respect throughout the rest of tourney.

V1 - ($33,488 / 56 bb) - VPIP 47% .. Limping often and haven’t saw anything of his showdown so far. Biggest stack at the table and even though if PFR is 21% (7/33) he doesn’t seem to aggro.

V2 - (11 bbs) - 45% VPIP . .

V3 - ($24,495 / 41bb) - VPIP 41% .. Seems pretty inexperienced and very limpish with only a PFR of 9%. Donks flop with no draw and less than top pair.

Hero . . .?

Since all players limped the best I think they can have in there range is QT. I know know I can't discount sets of 3s or 4s for either player but it just seemed unlikely.. With 3 of the biggest stacks at the table I figured I can get someone to hang themselves if there holding a Q.

Why, oh why?

Because I want to be like Scott Seiver? Lol... But really though, by the table dynamic I don't think there are to many players that are really willing to play back with me. With there only being a BB in the pot; raising doesn't seem like I'm going to get the most value especially with only 3 players to my left. I think limping QQ+ in smaller stakes tourneys and cash can be extremely profitable. And I watched something with Brian Rast on Twitch last night and he talks about it. It might not be in some players arsenals but just cause one player might not elect to limp super premium nutter butter supremes (lmao); I think it's a way to throw some small ball and not fall in love with your hand and just throw in some curve balls and try to be unexploitable and keep them guessing. So let me ask you, Why, oh why not?

Because you have table full of guys who have absurdly high VPIP and a premium hand. Your goal should je getting as much chips in to the pot as possible? are you fearing that they don't call if you raise, because that seems very unlikely.

Also they no way in hell that you are being unexploitable if you limp a premium now and then. How do you balance it and how it changes your raising range and is there a need to tune it?

(Not saying that being unexploitable is nessessery even the best thing to be in micros)

I don't have a problem with limping or limping big hands, but this is just awful. You aren't getting raised that often when you limp and a raise gets called a lot. Also, bet the flop multiway.
