Thanks all, definitely looks like a bit of a pre-flop blunder from me in hindsight. Didn't get deservedly punished on this occasion.
In terms of limping it though, should I limping some premium hands (AA2K, AA23 etc) pre in this spot too. I agree that the above hand works better as a limp, but surely we need to have a balanced limping range, otherwise good players will probably pick up on this and take advantage.
This is a really good point however in my experience most players won't notice (or care , they will call regardless) but if a good player is to your left then you need to balance your range, and they will perhaps squeeze your limp then you can come back over the top with your monster hands......then lose as the flop always favours them......
