Re: why is limping so bad?
I have a similar question about limping. I'm a live limit player who has been playing 1/2 NL for the last few months. I'd rather play limit but for various reasons have no choice. Anyway, I've done ok, but not as good as some. My sample is very small, only about 10 sessions, but it seems that the winning players play nearly any two cards if they can see a flop for $2-10. I've been basically playing my limit game and folding most hands. Harrington says that when the blinds are small relative to the betting that you should play tightly. I think in these small-stakes NL games the opposite is true. If you hit the flop big with 7,8 off, the implied odds are huge. Do you think there's merit to this or am I just being results oriented?
