    i don't do that with utg limpers. ive been called too much by 99-JJ and AQ/AK.

    if this hand happened without the utg limper, i push it everytime with that stack.

    reads are naturally important. He had been limping every other hand. This is risky I admit but I wanted to get some chips easily.

    Gorilla, calling somebody with danish names isnt polite at all..

    Actually, yah. I hate the move with the UTG limper unless he likes to limp.

    I seem to run into KK, but it's always some donk limping from MP.

    103s > KK > Sarah Brightman

    I just limped AA EP twice, nobody raised, no action. It seemed to work pretty well before, gotta start raising the bullets again I guess. At least I tend to make moves PF against limpers, but then again, I rather do that against MP limpers when I am on CO/button and I have some reads.

    triptanes, do you have something against Sarah?

    so you did this with a utg limper because he is loose.........but doesn't that make him more likely to call with AXs or KQ

    loose = better chances he doesnt have good cards. + he had been folding a lot PF. I agree, I agree, perhaps I took too much risk here but here I but I had good reads. Kids, cough*gabe*cough, dont do this at home
