Re: LImping with AK and AQ in early levels
[ QUOTE ]
just because (at the 33s and lower) people will still call you with AQ and stack off with TP2K.

And people willing to go down on AQ play it knowing many will go down on less. I consider it the same as losing with KK to AA. I'd only fold AQ if I knew I was up against a good player.
I don't like limping. In these short structures it's hard not to showdown overpairs and TPGK (eg AK/AQ), so I prefer to raise preflop. This causes them to make a mistake by calling preflop, and lessens any mistake I make postflop. Limping, you are giving people much better implied odds to hit 2p or something. I don't know if my thinking is correct, it's just how I feel.
