Pros: Do you complete from the small blind with worthless hands, for good pot odds?

    OK, so you're in the SB with 8h3c @ the 10/20 level.......3 limpers ahead of you gives you 10 into 90 which are seemingly great odds to complete.

    What's your play here? Completing, you're looking to flop 2 pr, trips, or some nebulous 1 card draw of some kind at best.......or else the chances of you continuing past the flop are thin.

    And if you fold 8h3c here, what's your range to complete?

    depends on the players limping, but hands like 83o im folding. I'm definitely completing a lot of the time though.

    same here. the pot odds + the ease with which ppl go broke in limped pots makes it almost impossible for me to fold unless there's just a huge probability of the BB bluff raising.

    however, am told all the time it's a bad idea.
