Don't have this info on UTG limper. He plays solid, maybe a little to aggressive post flop. I felt that he thought he was ahead of guy in cutoff.

I can see where you are coming from Lloyd.
His frequency of Cbets and a couple of post flop check raises with air earned him the TAG label.
Never saw this move B4.

Body language and he being aware of cutoffs rock image gave me the impression he was happy going up against cuttoff.

Still unsure about this one. Anybody else folding or calling?

"Now, in this hand, the UTG limp, re - shove after a short stack all - in means that he should have a monster. Many weaker players like to play AA or KK this way"

Luckylloyd, just a quick query to the last post you made. I wouldn't consider myself to be a total beginner or that weak a player to be honest but I sometimes play AA KK in the following way in the middle/later stages of STT's. Obviously as the blinds are high 99% of the time a short stack WILL move all in trying to pick up the blinds and my limp. Can you tell me whats wrong with this play if it is viewed as weak.

By the way i've read many of your posts and find them really really helpful so keep up the good work!

I saw this hand, UTG did not limp, he asked the table if he could make a blind call before the cards were dealt, we all agreed, so he did(I don't know if this tidbit of information is of much use). The hand range for him to do this is AA,KK,QQ(Can't really count this as you have two of the queens in the deck),JJ,AK, you're not beating much there, and racing against AK. In any case, you would have to call most of your stack to play in this hand, and QQ against that range doesn't fare well.
