so u clearly missed the 'folded back to you'. the limper is irrelevant to the hand, as he FOLDED.

good god people.

I didn't, Sobe, read my explanation first. Thanks much.

Let me repeat it:

If limper is TIGHT and in UTG/UTG+1, then it is relevant as to both your raising range and button's re-raising range.

If limper is tricky, likes to get in a lot of pots, etc., then that's relevant.

If limper is loose passive, not so relevant.

It's not that he FOLDED, it's how his limp may/may not affect how I play 99 and how villain plays his hand to the left of me.

It's why I don't like this post - position is ignored early, then stated, early limper's tendencies are not listed. It becomes strictly a math problem, which is boring. Oh yeah, fold.
