I like the limp.

Why? I honestly can't see any reasons to like it.

The purpose of raising marginal hands in late position is usually to attempt to win without showing down either pf or with a flop/turn continuation bet. Some ace high and small pair hands can also stand getting looked up on the river.

you can't show this hand down UI though, and you often wont get headsup with a raise since a limper is offering much better odds to the blinds - expanding thier ranges. You don't have enough equity to raise for value, as you'll have to catch to win most of the time.

This hand can win against these ranges by catching in a lot of ways (including just pairing up), and plays well enough multiway that we don't mind seeing the bb get in for free.

we have position, and can dump quickly. We can also pump when we hit.

what would you rather do with it? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
