1st hand.

I know these AK-PP UTG type threads are tedious, but I am just wondering what you all do here. I have no read at all on villain.

Blech, I think I'd flat but it's close. He's repping a pair larger than yours so you rate to get paid off pretty often when you hit, even though you're out of position. I wouldn't blame you if you wanted to fold though.

It's fine to just open limp these types of hands. Usually raising gets us into all sorts of bother postflop. We just end up playing OOP in a large multiway pot. I'd just play it to setmine.
