Re: $11 - Limping from the button w/13 BB
Why would you limp here when you could try to steal UTG's money here and the blinds with a raise?
You don't really have the implied odds anymore to limp with hands like these because of the size of your stack. At 13BB you should be looking for a double-up on TP, getting all your money in before the flop with a strong hand, and blind stealing with marginal hands like the ones you're describing, not spiking 2-pair or a draw on the flop.
You simply don't have the wiggle-room at this point to "outplay" anyone postflop with these marginal hands.
