Re: Limping UTG!!!

I'm having a difficult time thinking of a situation where limping Q10s UTG is a good option six-handed.

When the other people at your table
1) are major calling stations pre-flop and rarely ever raise
and
2) call down deveral substantial bets with hands like middle pair/top pair.
In that situation a pre-flop raise would not enable you to take down pots with cbets while you will get paid off even if you don't start building the pot pre-flop.
Situations like that can come around sporadically on loose/passive tables and if you identify them as such a limp would be the right play. (You are playing for 2pair or better then.)
I don't think you will often find tables that stay in this dynamic over several orbits although I have seen it happen.
