What surprised me is not that the UTG limper called. For some reason, limpers just _hate_ folding. What surprised me was how fast he called and what he called with. I expected to see the usual: Two big cards, a medium pair or aces (seldom). I'm quite happy to try and double up here vs most of those hands. I felt that TT or bigger would have raised, 99 MIGHT have limped or 88 MIGHT have limped. I felt I was ahead most of the time and only slightly behind the rest of the time. ERGO, poosshh.
Your thoughts? I really am trying to learn.
Thanks.
