The re-raise is so crappy that I have to call (esp. with position) - this ok thinking?

In a tournament, I would probably raise here against one weak limper, esp. OTB. In a cash game, is it worth it?

Hand 4
Opp. was limping all sorts of crappy hands. Seemed to like the two-s00ted combinations. Do I give him a chance to bet on the turn, like my continuation bet got picked off or do I not give him credit for this level of thinking and bet out again?

This isn't a T vs $ issue. It's a money depth issue. With lots of money behind A7o sucks donkey balls.

I get what you are saying here Fnord. Just seems a bit tame to pass up a hand where I'm certain that I am ahead pre-flop and I fancy my chances at post-flop play.
Are you saying that with such deep stacks, I don't need to force this kind of play where my edge is marginal?
