Ah, math I understand!
So: let's say I limp 1BB 20 times to see a great hand to continue with beyond the flop.
For that to be profitable, I would need to be able to make more than 20BB's on the good hand.
That I seem to be able to do, by finding straights or flushes in the flop.
My main concern was what *other* strategic options am I weakening by this behavior? IE., do I weaken my actual good hands by limping on flush draws?
