So I was in a $100 max, blinds of 2 & 3 game last. In this game I don't limp that much at all cause of the blinds are so ridiculously high, but the game got real limpey last night. Since I am coming from a live LHE background and am used to playing in LP type games where there is a lot of limping, what kind of range should I be limping with in this game in various postions? Just save any liming for the CO-Button for the most part with typical holdings or??? I guess I am just sort of looking for a semi-default limping range in this game.

For this game I usually just wait for a good holding, raise it up PF, get my $ in when I hit for the most part. The blind structure and starting stack size does not leave much room for spec hands, although the way in which most of the players at the table were limping constantly, whittling away their stacks you wouldn't have guessed it

Just don't want to miss out on any hands that I can jump into the pot with in this game.

Thoughts?

I only play on-line, but sometimes get such games when I dabble NL25.

I just never limp, always raise with strongish hands (on the button any 2 broadways do really). In my experience, you take it down a lot preflop or on the flop.

Caveat:if you get a LOT of callers preflop, this is extremely high variance, though I think it's still +EV. I might just limp along in such circumstances, since you can often get good value just waiting for TP decent kicker.

I still would play a wide range of hands from the button or even cut-off.

NLHE is so much more about position than LHE. Also playing a loose button will make you seem less nitty and relieve some of the bordem.

I limp a ton in position in that sort of online game and put to use my superior post-flop hand-reading skills. I'm not afraid to play multi-way limped pots. I raise with premium hands and occasional suited connectors or trash to balance. My bet-sizing is probably patterned a bit after Daniel Negreanu on HSP.

If preflop raises are rare or tend to be on the small side and called by lots of players, you can limp (and call small raises back to you) with little pairs. If the stacks are actually $100 and it's $3 to come in, I'm looking for hands that can flop TPGK or better, so I'll play a fair number of broadways, especially if I can feel good about getting it all in with, say, Qc Jh on a flop of Qd 8d 6s. (And as ridiculous as this seems, some live games play like that, with people calling a pot size flop bet with Ad Jh or calling off their $100 with Qh 3h.) If the stacks are actually bigger because of rebuys, then I'd limp in with true suited connectors in almost all positions (if there aren't any preflop raises) and some suited gappers and unsuited connectors in LP and even very speculative hands like 53o on the button.

Strange table last night. A typical pot: several limpers, someone raises to $15 all fold. A few hands later. 6 limpers, SB pops it to $20, all call. SB had air and actuallty won with it, but said he was trying to fold out all the limpers.

Since I am coming from a LHE background where we are almost always are calling a raise after we limp into a pot, it is taking some adjusting to be sure with hands like SCr's, small pairs etc. as to if I should be calling a raise or not. I know it depends on my position, stack sizes, how much the raise is, how many others are in the pot calling the raise in front or behind me among other things. I really don't have a basic default range for calling raises after I limp in NLHE yet I guess.
