Re: Limping/Spewing with 55
*grunch*
I'm torn on this; you are much more likely up against AK, AQ, KQ, etc. than you are a made pair, so I don't think it's so bad to take the lead in this hand. I would continue to lead the betting on the turn and river unless you are raised again, but in any case you've got good odds to call down your OESD by the time you get to the turn.
On the other hand I think the play on the flop is not what I would have done at all. If I were really interested in taking control of the hand I would have check-raised the flop instead of betting out.
