4-8 with the 1-2 dollar blinds
 
Live game, very loose very passive.

Most hands are 4-7 ways for 2 dollars each.

What's the worst hand you limp with in MP.

I was limping with some pretty crappy hands but it just seemed right?

So it's $2 before the flop with the option of raising to $4, then it proceeds normally like a $4/8 game?

You're probably correct to limp a lot more hands since your implied odds are larger. I probably dip down to hands like 54s or so and some suited kings in MP in the game you descibed.

I play a 2/5 game in my home casino and although it feels a bit awkward, I definetly lower my limping standards if I know I can get in for one bet.

I usually don't limp with worse hands, because all you are doing is joining the crowd in throwing chips away. Q-8o is not a good hand. Just cause other people play it, doesn't make it a winner. This coupled with the fact Q8o is horrible in a multiway pot, means no chips for u.

That being said, 22-77 are alot more profitable from anywhere when you hit a set. Also (A-x)s is a good hand as well.

I wasn't talking about the offsuited trash specifically I was refering to hands like 54s or Qxs.

"That being said, 22-77 are alot more profitable from anywhere when you hit a set. Also (A-x)s is a good hand as well."
These hands that you stated are pretty much always profitable in loose passive game no matter what the blind structure. I wanted to know how this particular blind structure can effect your play.
