Re: 56s - at a passive table, did I play this too hard?
at a table such as the one described in this post, the limp is fine. he said it rarely ever got raised before the flop, and he already has 3 limpers in before him. sure, the hand is better in even later position, but this is fine.
as long as this doesn't get raised behind us too often, we're in a good spot.
if everyone folds behind us, we have the best position in a multiway pot with a good multiway hand.
if a couple more people call behind us, we don't have the best position but we're now in a very multiway pot with a hand that is going to be very profitable when we hit.
if you could guarantee me the flop goes 5-way, unraised, i'm limping this utg.
