In the Poker Clinic on 865 tonight, Redmond Lee (who knows what he's talking about) made the case for the limp. The hand example he gave was 66, UTG, to avoid a re-raise. Redmond admitted that it was a special situation and generally limping was not a positive play. James Hartigan (who generally doesn't know what he's talking about: his advice is 'shove or fold') argued against Redmond that the limp was a bad play. Well, whose advice would you take?
It's nice to know that I'm not alone! If the Oracle that is Redmond Lee thinks that on special occasions the limp could be the correct play, I don't feel so lonely in my opinions.

But limping utg with pp is totally different to limping in on the button.
GTB tho I think limping in in early seats with PPs is burning chips
