Re: What do you limp?
[ QUOTE ]
so from UTG, in the first hand, are you raising or folding JJ? 1010? 99? I'm curious because the set value of these hands is fantastic, but rarely will you play out one of these hands early in an STT where they will take down a pot unimproved.

I know this question was addressed to Marwan, but I thought I would offer my 2-cents as well since I don't often open limp early in STTs. It's important to first note that I play at Stars with the deeper starting stacks and might well play differently at Party.
From UTG in the early levels I generally open raise with any pocket pair that I would call a raise with had I open limped instead. In general, this means 77 and up. I'll usually fold 66 and lower unless the table has shown a willingness to let a bunch of limpers see a cheap flop.
Once in a great while, if it's too early for the table to have a read on me, I'll open limp AA from UTG.
