To limp or not to limp??

[RoyalMunsoned]

Does anybody here limp in early position with big pocket pairs? Has this proved successful for you guys/gals?? I have had a rough go of big pocket pairs lately, and wanted to try a different approach. Realizing that they are usually not big money makers in NL games, is there any particular strategy that works best??

AA and KK are my biggest money makers and i raise em up every chance i get

Sure I limp big PPs sometimes. But the reason I limp is to trap some money in the pot and come back over on them, not to see the flop cheaply. It sounds like your problem is how to play postflop, not preflop: you're asking the wrong question.
