Video overview.
(n) Limp – To call the minimum amount preflop (the big blind) in order to attempt to see the flop.
This concept video focuses on how to play in limped pots in NLHE cash games. It's actually more like a HH review video than a concept video, as all of the advice and strategy for playing in limped pots is built solely around a bunch of replayed hand histories instead of classroom sections.
Although where and when to limp is covered, this training video goes in to far more detail by looking at how to play postflop in limped pots. Limped pots play differently to raised pots because the SPR (the size of the effective stacks in relation to the size of the pot on the flop) is much bigger, so SplitSuit pays a lot of attention to postflop play.
Furthermore, open-limping is mostly awful, so all of the hands covered in this video are from spots where SplitSuit has over-limped instead of open-limped.
(n) Open-limp – To limp in preflop before anyone else has entered the pot.
(n) Over-limp – To limp in preflop after one or more limpers.
