Bomb / Splash Pots

 Uri:

1/2 game , $20 splash pot

1. A splash pot is like a big ante, in this case it sounds like it's 10bb or more ante
2. the strat in this should be to limp extremely wide - think 40-50% of hands from UTG
3. and then everyone limps behind wide
4. 
   
if you're going to raise, probably go something similar to the splash pot+blinds size as your go-to raise from late positions - so say raise button cutoff to 24$


5. from earlier positions you can go smaller, even as small as 8$, because a lot of the guys behind you have to fear getting squeezed

shortcuts:

turn the game in your mind into a bigger blind game (and translate stack depth accordingly)

• with 10bb ($20) dead money in the middle - the game has become a 5/10 game (rather than 1/2)

and so every one is effectively 10bb deep (!)

• that is why now if everyone limps to the BB, he can start shoving 33+

practical exloit adjustments:

• pool tends to be too tight:
• you can limp or open way wider
• presumably call tighter vs agg than the charts suggests?
