There's a great thread going about the best advice you ever had, and this one is along the same lines, except it's the best lesson "YOU" ever learned from experience.
Mine was the very first time playing HoldEm, and it was my very first time at a casino cash game, and the first SB of that game.
Blinds were $1/$2, and I was dealt 7-2. I tossed it instead of putting in the dollar, and the flop came 7-2-7. I don't remember the rest of that hand and how it went, I only remember it was a big pot and if I had played, I would have won.
Since that, I will always limp in on the SB if given the opportunity in cash games or early in tourneys. It's paid off quite a few times.
