Nice hand aequitas, when I play those low limit tables and there are that many callers preflop I will usually raise with any pocket pair to build the pot if I hit a set. It works well because if I don't hit a set with a small to medium pocket pair I'm not going any further then the flop.

yea I always raise with pair also builds pot up nice then when you check on flop they will raise like crazy!!!

hey what does that title mean anyway huh seems to me from the posts ive read of you that we play similar. Seems from what you run that if we where sitting at same table the money would go back and forth until one of us got the well hidden hand? I know your just kidding (i hope) so ill let this one slide!

I just moved up to 1/2 today (and had a good session, +26BB in 1 hr.). I've been plotting this meteoric rise for awhile now. I find it funny when people refer to these limits as sooo low, and micro-limits. My hands were shaking, lol.!!

is that 26x big bet or big blind because if thats 26x big bet thats 52 dollars in a hour thats awsome.
