Better line for flopped bottom 2pair, please!

[ajmargarine]

I was reviewing some hands today in Pokertracker of some players who I play with quite a bit (at NL100). I was amazed at how many times AK and AQ were limped preflop (and all premiums for that matter). So, I'm not surprised if villian had AK here. That said, you took a passive line but ended up getting good $$$ in on each street and I would be happy. You lost less if you were WB and won a decent amount if your hand held up. Probably not optimal play, but adequate.

I dunno about most folks, but I limp AQ more often than not from early and middle positions. The only AJ calling you is owned by a donk, and when someone with AK calls, half the flops you hit, you are a dead man, the other half, your opponent has nothing and will fold to most any bet.
