Re: On the pre-flop limping

I hear what you're saying about implied odds but in this case, making it 200 is 10% of your stack and no one's getting the implied odds they need against you.

It's also less of an issue with AK than it is with a big pair, because it's harder for someone to make a hidden big hand _when you hit_ .

And finally, with a limper already, you're more likely to be in position if you get a caller than not. I would just raise.
