Default Starting out in Limit

So I would like to try to at least learn some limit poker even though I've said in the past that I hate it.

I tried some today and is it basically standard to call down with any pair or draw and just see who lucks out? I understand the odds, they are really easy to figure out, but the trash some people are playing is just unbelievable to my no limit mind. I am having an awful tough time figuring the thought process out here, frankly because there doesn't seem to be one.

Example: Hero dealt QQ

Folds to SB who completes, Hero raises, SB calls

Flop: JT2r

SB bets, Hero raises, SB calls

Turn: 5

SB bets, Hero raises, SB calls

River: 4

SB bets, Hero raises, SB raises, Hero calls

SB shows T4o

[img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] I ran into this kind of play over and over again on Full Tilt 0.25/0.50. I just really don't understand what is going through the other players' heads and putting them on a hand seems impossible.

How did you guys start to learn limit?
