AK, AQ offsuit in the blinds, limit holdem

[chimpanzepoopdic]

When a hand has multiple callers I often limp from the blinds with these hands figuring no one will fold to a raise. Then on the flop I can check, evaluate the action and easily set up a check raise or fold if necessary. I've also been known to do this with medium pairs as high as QQ.

When my Ace big is suited I am much more likely to raise preflop from the blinds to help any drawing odds I may have later in the hand.

Am I giving up to much by limping with these big hands from the blinds?
