limping is a pretty large mistake with under like 30 BBs

[clowntable]

If you limp there you should be comfortable playing the hand OOP and not strictly for set value given the stack size.
So I guess some people could get away with it but generally yeah horrible idea.

Just listen to ASPoker, he's crushing waffles all over the place :P

When did you switch to cash?

I'm at my friend's drinking and playing GH. I didn't want to get involved in a tourney when I knew I had 10 minutes to play.

Do you play sngs epi? Is your other ID someone in STTF who I would recognise?

I find that quite hard to believe, mind you, because limping is horrible here, and I don't imagine many regulars in STTF would say otherwise.

i have to say i didnt realise it was an stt hand, i assumed mtt. that might change my answer as i havent played stts in years, they make me lose the will to live.
reason limp is better than fold is because you either want little or all of your stack in pf in this situation, so limp with intent of reraising any raiser all in unless action becomes crazy is superior to standard raise called in one spot where you have 1k behind, 700 in the pot, and a lot of flops where no remaining option seems especially attractive, because any bet gets you potstuck and checking is asking to get robbed if your hand is in fact still best on a flop that looks bad to you. its possible that im wrong w.r.t stts where everyone is shallow and playing robotically, i dont know. but in mtts that number of big blinds makes it hard to go wrong by never raising preflop, esp in early position.
