Most important thing when considering opening these hands is the stacks and activity behind.
If they are all tight and playing 20 bbs it's an easy open.
In this spot if you feel the guy with 12bbs has been looking for a spot then it's a trivial fold for me.
That must have been the vibe on reflection, I thought a lot of activity behind, but I really don't want to fold so I lol shipped. I think the limp then is ok? Or just welcoming the ship behind?
Can we balance this out by open limping Aces here?
Id stick to ABC and just open raise, limping requires some very specific thought process post flop,
and no, Im not limping AA ever.
I find myself doing crazy shit all the time though, on the exploratory vibe. Think its good to know where the limits are in the game you are playing at the expense of some disposable chips.
So will be seeing what the limping game in this spot as to offer me.
Have people thought about the open limp/raise bluff pre flop. How can you not have Aces there in most spots?
