Default $5 MTT - 55 UTG with 19BB

Too weak? I didn't like limping because I'm not deep enough to call a raise.

I'm fine with this. 55 is tough to play in EP with an 18BB stack...

I think a fold is fine - I would guess my raising range is something like 99+, AKo+ with this stack (looking to call any shove (and pray)).

Too tight.

I'm on the fence with 77 and definitally raising 88 PF. I'm raising AQ and AJ too.

If the table is OK, I limp here way too [censored] much in fear of being tight and wish I would stop it. fwiw, this post inspires me.

??? No. I'd probably raise 77 1/2 of the time and fold 77 1/2 of the time. 88+ I raise. Below 88 I fold.
