22 against a chronic reraiser?

[/ QUOTE ]

I like to open limp on the button with hands like KQs/AJo/QJs/small pairs and the like against chronic re-raisers (which everyone seems to be when you are at the last few tables and make a button raise)

Basically I'm avoiding bloating the pot too much PF, as I will call his raise, but the pot will be more like 8-10BB's + antes instead of 18-10BB's, and if we are only 30-50BB's deep by that time, it makes all the difference in the world in allowing me to use position for the rest of the hand.

If I raise it up PF he either blows me off my hand or I'm going to the felt with a hand that doesn't warrant it, those stack sizes can make PF raises tough with hands you really want to play (especially with position) but can't take any real heat, and need at least 2 streets of betting to play well

That's my take. I play a lot of tourneys, but generally am not as good as most here at deep stack NLHE.
