i have ran into a couple situations where someone will limp in the cut off with a big hand QQ-AA. i typically wont play a hand without raising. i do not like to call the min and limp in with 6 other ppl.
today in the $3R blinds are 600/1200, table has been playing kind of loose. i'm on the button with 88, 3 people limp in front of me so i raise to 7200. i had ~45k. everyone folds but one guy re-raises all in for my whole stack. i call and he has QQ. I lose and bust.
my question is, did the limp all in make the "right" play for getting donkey me to call him? i have seen people pull this move a few times and 95% of the time i just fold cause i dont like to go all in PF anyway. typically when i've seen ppl do this before, they'll have 88>*. i have seen a lot of people with PP's just limp then smooth call a big raise to hit their card.
is limping then shoving all in a good move? i think it's a TERRIBLE move even though it worked for the guy in this situation. if feel like you're going to lose more often since you're allowing ppl to just come in for "free" with mid range or worse hands.
obviously i probably shouldnt have called his all in for my whole stack with 88 but would it have been better for me to just limp too or should i have folded outright?
