Well, pretty much what you would assume. Something like an OESD plus a flush draw in a multiway pot against calling stations and LAGs.

Fold.

At a $15 if the flop hits you, you're going to double up against loose players.

Uh, hitting you how? Usually i consider hitting a flop w/ this hand when i flop a DRAW.

this is a fold, middle to late position and i'll limp or raise with it, not UTG though.

Assuming you are not joking from your responses, this trollish thread may actually be of some use to you.

Thanks for the link Lori. You're usually right, so I'm trying to wrap my head around this one. What if you're on the button and there's 3 limpers to you? Still fold?

On Stars I may be tempted to call that one. It would depend on your confidence in your post flop play.

Out of position though, look at the mess the other guy is in, even with a great flop.

I was pretty sure this was an easy limp at a low buy in and an easy fold at a higher buy in. Maybe limping this is a leak for me, I need to think about this some more.

... because it automatically hits them enough to go all-in. but with 0 equity?

Play some ring games and you'll see why this is trash, but it's even worse in tournies.
