    Default Punishing button limpers

    It happens at all levels, you get people so retarded that it folds round to them on the button and they limp in! What the fuck? It's such a bullshit play, raise or fold mofo!

    A possible leak in my game is that I don't punish these guys enough, in fact I'm probably only raising them with a range very similar to my EP raising range.

    I always figure that if they are fishy enough to limp then they are going to call the raise and then we are out of position. Of course I can out play these idiots though so I feel I should be raising more.

    My question is what range do you raise with when you have persistent open limpers on the button:
    a) out of the sb with a loose bb
    b) out of the sb with a tight bb
    c) out of the bb with the sb completing
    d) out of the bb with the sb folding?

    Please discuss!

    I raise them pretty rarely.
    Maybe 88+, KQ, AJ+ or something like that.
    As you say they are usually calling a raise, they are calling with any piece of flop so we want to play them with our hands for value.
    A hand like 67s is too often going to miss the flop and end up showing down and losing to A high which the guy called our cbet with.

    a + b:

    Assuming 6max, I'm raising pretty much my UTG range, maybe chucking in a few other hands like ATo/KQo etc. depending on how donkish they are.

    c + d:

    Probably my MP range. Not too keen on going with SC's for the reasons wota says and I'm liking to play these hands in position for the most part.

    EDIT: I'd take out 77 and below from these ranges though.

    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

    LOL @ full ring nits. You realise I play more hands at 10 handed games than you do at 6 handed games?

    I actually wouldn't play Jharding HU4Rollz anymore. His roll is too big.

    I'd happily pwn him at microstakes of $100NL though
