Re: Limping AA UTG - 10 handed full ring?
[ QUOTE ]
I never raise anything UTG, I just dont like that position, and I only raise AA on SB if there are more than 1 caller or if caller is calling station or bb is calling station.
hows this strategy working out for you?

Actually, I played this way for quite a while and still do occasionally if I feel the players are good and aggressive after me in a 9-10 handed game.
If it's a non-optimal style of play, it's not by much. I seriously never raised UTG or UTG + 1 for probably my 1rst 6 months of serious play after I got my a** kicked a couple times in bloated pots out of position.
There's always exceptions obviously, but my default play used to be to limp - i actually still do this a lot, as it allows me to limp w/ most pocket pairs and if at the right table suited connectors. I make a decent amount of money from EP, so i'm fine w/ the strategy.
I think super system advocates this style as well, which is why I started using it in the first place w/ very good results. Now I'm a little more flexible, but I still like limp-reraising a ton w/ many hands if stacks are less than 150 BB. People don't adjust to a limp-reraiser that well.
