The little pair !!?

[afatsar]

Hi everybody,

I just want to kwn how you played the little pair, like 5-5 ( the speed limit ) or the 4-4 ...

I don't know how to play this hand, I just call, but maybe it's better to Raise !!?

Thanks

Honestly, if you want a safe way to play these hands...

Fold to any bet that's larger than 2.5x the big blind.

Don't raise with it. Mainly because if you do and someone calls/raises you won't know what is truly a safe flop for you.

Only play them in late position.



That's what I tell most of my friends that are just starting out and it seems to work for them. It also keeps them from tossing too much money into the pot only to have to fold.
