Limping behind bttn (super unexciting but relevant for the games I play in )

Spot that comes up quite a lot in live

This specific one is a 1-3 game

we get one limp ep who is super wide. Seen him limp things like Q7o in the HJ. He doesn't seem to pay off super light postflop however, and have played with him for years. get a CO limp as well

Hero on Bttn w K3s
Blinds are mostly passive preflop

First limper $500 eff
second same ish

Hero $500eff
Blinds 300-400

I think limping behind here is okay, but kinda close. I feel like we need a bit of implied odds for a limp like this to work(player dependent). I'd be more happy limping behind something like K7s-K9s, as our pairs are a bit more meaningful and can bet to collect the pot more often. Same with things like JTo, KTo, QTo

I'd limp, but that could be because I'm impatient in a live setting.

Haha, I get that.

I think it can’t be too bad. But it is kinda meh and possibly still losing just because going 4-5 way a lot is still going to hurt, plus hitting the rake immediately/not drawing to nuts.

I usually do it depending on the skill level of the players in pot. Like if I think sometone will pay off light then I’m more willing to speculate with something like this
