Default Re: Limping UTG!!!

I play 5-max and I'm raising this bad boy pf almost every time.

One such reason could be:

I am playing 10NL and I do not have much in terms of postflop skill and people tend to be calling stations, so I prefer to just be a mindless nit and just build my roll the easy way untill I hit levels, where I might get forced to open my game in order to survive. (Which is perfectly valid imo)

First off, that's an incredibly good reason to fold at uNL.

This is not a reason at all for folding. The looser your opponents play, the more you should loosen up also, because your substandard hands still fare well against their range. Also, if they are calling stations (or really in any way terrible) post-flop, then that's also only an argument for playing even more hands, to abuse their poor play in later streets.

Even if you're not an expert post-flop player yourself, it's probably good to throw yourself into these marginal spots once in a while (and post about them).
