If the table is weak-tight, limping isn't going to get too much action in the first place. Besides the fact that open-limping is generally pretty weak, I would rather encourage less action w/ AJo.

I have observed lots of SS games that are "tight" in terms of raw averages, but they open up to 4+ handed when 2 people limp. Your games may be different, but this is what I've observed in 5 years of playing both live and online.

As for whether AJ can handle the action--I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. I think it handles volume just fine and actually prefers it. What I don't want to see is people screaming "always raise AJ", because it isn't that simple.

And, finally, you're right, it ultimately is probably less than a nickel of BB/100 whether you limp or raise.
