limping in later stages

[the_joker]

I don't really want to push in to 5 people with KQ, or make a standard raise, or fold, so I limp, but I really don't like that either. It a fairly passive table (3-table, $5+.5). Any suggestions?

i don't like it.

there's too many people behind you left to act--- even at a passive table... you're putting in almost 10% of your chips here by limping.

if folded to you in late position, i would raise... here, with your chips and position, i would fold.

there are very few situations when limping is good when the blinds get high.
