Limping here is a bit too passive. If I had 18-20+ bbs, maybe an argument can be made, but with 12, it's not very good.

I'd actually like this better in a PO game or a table infested with fish who will call my steal light anyways, but it's still very passive.
It's a relatively good hand, but position wasn't great, and the stacks are short enough that it's a no-brainer for anyone that wants to play to go ahead and shove instead of call. But I'm still working on my aggression and haven't won nearly as much money as you =).
