Have you ever heard about some kind of limping strategy in Hypers?I played about like 250 hypers limping from the button against most of my opponents(like 90%, because it was just wrong to limp against players folding like 80% to my opens) and i really think that there is big potential in it.My main argument is that it reduce the variance.We lose some value from passive opponents and we got trapped from random junk hands when we limp monster, but overall i think its worth it.Will really enjoy opinions from you guys.

Could any of you recommend me some reading about this limping strategy or give me a video name where some coach is playing this way.

your roi should be higher because you play bigger eff stacks but games last longer so your hourly will be lower, anyway don't try to discover some new strategy, there is a reason why no one limps so much and minraises mostly

it's mostly an adjustment vs specific players, there are players where i would limp a very large % of hands against

There are two guys who seemed to be winning regs I played yesterday who raised around 20% and limped 80%. But their raising range wasn't super strong as they limped a lot of their traps. It requires a lot of postflop ability and they were limp calling really wide in position which can get you into trouble obviously.

This. Generally used against people who have a somewhat decent understanding of expanding 3betting range as stacks get shorter

because of how much of your stack is involved in the pot after minraising at shallow stacks its certain that limping strategy of some kind is required at some point. open folding cost us money, and mr close to 100%, even if we mr/call accordingly to villains 3betting range is not only high variance but can also be loosing strategy (iirc according to will tipton's book gto solution for mr/shove game allows us to mr 100% up to something like 30bb). in addition to that it's also true that our edge post flop will be smaller with smaller SPR. but all that doesnt change the fact that we look for most +EV line with each hand and for example limping AK @25bb is never going to be best solution readless.

ask urself how often your average opponent fold to mr, how often u need to see him folding to have auto profitable mr, how often he folds to cbet, how does that change with stack depth, what hands can u mr/call at different stack depths vs population tendencies, what hands play good in single raised pots with relatively small spr and what hands dont. then try to create your ranges

Actually, i hope villain start limping for whatever reason. I think openfolding is even better, i wont have to play flops oop

I play really low but I definitely have started employing a limping strategy (depending on opponent) I would say typically 70/30 min raise to limp. Most of the players I face are fairly bad and don't adjust but i see how my strategy could be really exploitable. Especially if I'm not balancing well (admittedly I don't think I am) there are certain boards that I shouldn't connect with after I limp. However at my stakes I'm finding opponents usually opt to check fold on Ahigh flops (for example) in limped pots where I almost never have it. Don't know if that makes sense. I'm not sure if there is any reason for me to balance much at this point, but I just started playing the HUSNGs more frequently recently.
