So leader , you think that some hands should be limped ?

I do like the idea of raising otb if you decide to play since you give away no information . I find that limping with speculative hands is a sign of weakness and you'll have to mix it up with some limp re-raising to counter that .

Here are reasons why I dislike limping :

1) When you limp , you're getting a discount but your opponent is getting a free look at the flop .

2)Limping with weaker hands gives your opponent more information and your hand becomes better defined . This isn't a good idea . Imo , if a hand is playable , then you should raise because you have position and fold equity on your side .

3) Limping gives you 0 fold equity .

I'd like to hear some thoughts on why some people think limping is occasionally correct .
