Re: $55 Rebuy River Play

This whole hand seems weird to me. I'm opening for 300 preflop here. Then when it's checked to me (if I don't take it down p-flop) I'm betting 1/2 - 3/4 pot.

I know that the constantly attacking style is prevalent in NLH; but at a strong, observant table, I like to limp with many of my playable hands from early position. This strategy gives my limps some respect (notice all fold to the blinds) and thus allows me to limp some hands UTG which others might fold for fear of being raised too frequently.
In addition, an UTG raise is unlikely to be called by a worse ace in a strong field, so I'm not too keen on playing a huge pot out of position with AQ if somebody calls my raise. Am I really going to get away from my hand on an ace-high flop with 750 chips already in the pot? If not, any pocket pair or AK will show a profit at my expense by calling my raise in position.
