Lower Pocket Pairs
Category: Texas Holdem FAQ
Hello,
I want to ask something, it’s about pocket pairs particularly pocket 10′s and below. Well, some said it is far better to raise with strong pocket pairs as you prefer to play them against fewer players. But how about with lower pocket raise? And how do you normally play them from early, middle, and even late position?
Hope to hear from you.
Thank you so much and nice site!
Regards,
Dave
Dave,
From early and middle position, I try and limp in with my pairs in the event to hit a set. In late position I will raise with them. I am still hoping to hit a set, but if its gotten to late position without a raise, my pair may be best and maybe I can take the pot there.
