Action Completion?

[lorinda]

The point is, he will also call the other guy with a pair.

Our call can induce action that in itself can get us into third place.

Given that our hand isn't actually appalling, and that the other two players have the potential to push all in, and call all in, our presence in the pot can lead to the BB getting himself knocked out.

We can also flop something.

Now, I'm not saying that this is a common play, in fact I've stated before that I think it's very uncommon. I do however think that in this situation, with a limping calling station and an aggressive other short stack that Yugo can limp here and try to generate action at the cost of only 100 chips.

He may check fold the flop but find himself in the money.

fair enough but if BB pushes preflop you fold right

[lorinda]

Yes.

I want him to push preflop. Limper has a habit of calling short stacks.....

I think my limp gives him more chance to push.
