Default What do you do when you can never open-raise?

Was just in a $20 game where EVERYONE was seeing a damn flop it seemed -- I never got a real hand and was down to 700 chips by the time the blinds hit 50/100. Problem was that I never even saw paint when I was UTG, and even in MP there were always people limping in to see a flop, so no chance to open-raise with a half-decent hand.

By the 50/100 point there were still 7 people in, and I was about the short-stack. I eventually went in with K7o after one caller, he flipped over AJ and won it.

Just got desperate I guess -- one more orbit and a raise all-in would mean nothing.

So am I just out of luck in those situations?

Whole game I got one decent hand, cowboys, stole 45 worth of blinds, but that's it.
