Now I understand what you’re trying to say.
They still limp in a very large majority of the time at 100/200. People play that stake the same way they play 1/2, very passively. In real poker where there’s money on the line, that’s about the weakest thing you can do. When you limp, you essentially tell your opponents you have a weak hand. There are people here, if you pay attention to what they’re doing, limp so frequently that as soon as they call or raise, if you don’t have an incredible hand, you fold. They win lots of chips because everyone else limps too. But these same players fold so often to any type of aggression afther they limp that when they play back you know they have a hand.

I’ve found a good percentage of games are limp preflop, check post flop, chips go in on the turn, most fold, the good hands play chicken on the river, best hand wins.

Pretty much sums it up, but, then again, I watched a hand today on 100/200 and a guy played 72o to showdown. That’s horrendous play at any level.

there are times when i think it is rigged.And then there are times when id bet my last dollar it is rigged.But i keep coming back so there ya go really doesnt matter much.
Passive aggressive speculative angry?
Now that a mouthful 
This does not happen all the time in real games but it do on replay. a big pocket pair will lose over 7 2 most of the time on replay (for me anyway)
The fact that we are having this discussion let you know that something is wrong.

Really ? I don’t see that. Can we have some links please as some examples? Why you would want to play 72o baffles me.

For that to occur most of the time indicates that you aren’t betting enough with AA. I’ve seen 72o win, but not often. However, it can and does happen sometimes. If you are losing to 72o, it’s a good thing, because it indicates that your opponents suck, because there’s less than a 6% chance of it occurring. Them playing that hand to showdown shows they are major fish.

I have seen on many occasions the flop come down 772 / 277 /227 etc however when I have played 72o it never comes in lol (my own silly fault for thinking so) but once the flop is down and nothing to back my hand up then its a fold. In saying that I do not think that over the amount of hands played against the amount of times I have witnessed this that it is a major significance but hey I know nothing about poker still learning myself so I could be wrong I usually am lol
I said for me, I don’t know what its like for you or any other player. but it happens for me most of the time, that why i only play the free games. so i can learn because I did learn how to bluff on replay.
Hello Craig,
I did started playing the big pocket pairs and big slick and lose every time but i would watch and if i had played the 7 2 or 6 j off I would of won so i started playing the 7 2 and win that’s why I would play those hands so i can win other wise I would lose. that happens for me, i don’t know what happen for you but my experience is I would lose playing the good hands.
As long as it works for you that’s great. I always toss 72o.
Best of luck
As you should.

I’m interested in why everyone thinks 72o is the “worst hand.” Actually, the lowest odds of winning is with a 32o. I understand that 72 can’'t hit a straight, but the odds of that happening is less then hitting the 7 vs. a 2 or 3.
In heads up play, if you play two random hands to completion, the odds of winning 72o is about 37%; 32o, on the other hand, is about 35%.
If I’m in the BB, I’ll take 72o over 32o any day. What am I missing?
What if you’re raised 2 or 3 times the BB?

I’d probably fold either hand, 72o or 32o. (Unless I’m tilted in which case I’d go all in…lol).
If no one raises, I’d check either hand, but I’m folding either as well if someone bets. The advantage of 32o is that it’s connected. While 32o can only hit a weak flush, it’s a better hand because it can possibly hit a straight, which a 72o can’t.
