Damn your right knoedel 
I had that go down right after I made my post, and thought cool I have a good example. I didnt even look at the hand close enough. I got the image I wanted. It does work though (against the right opponents) I've done this and had people call me down. Large bets to, with just middle pair.
Ed,
The open limps in EP with A4o and QTo are pretty atrocious.
Yea you are right. I dont usually do this. Its a play that I am testing out. Ive been experimenting with alot of different things lately. Trying different ideas I have and what other people here say to do.
I had been at this table for quite awhile and playing my usual tight game, and getting very little action. I thought it would be a good time to try this. At the least it would loosen up my image. So like I had said I limp anything and make about a pot size bet on any Flop.
Generally my normal game I would say if anything I play to tight. Yesterday I had pockets As 3 times and made a whole 5$. This was just with 4XBB PF raises. 2x the whole table Folded PF. 1 hand went to the Flop with 1 opponent. I made a pot size bet and he Folded.
I'll admit, one of my favorite plays against weak players is open-completing the SB then potting any flop. So transparent though...
I've never really tried doing this all that much, but today I played for ~1500 hands and I think I won on the flop about 95% of the time... this is really really good advice against weak/ passive bb's.
Like Lukie and givememyleg said it does work against weak or passive players. I guess that is the main thing, who you are playing. Limping anything and then betting any Flop against tight or passive/weak players will get you alot of small pots. This helps pay for the times you raise the Flop with nothing and then are reraised and have to Fold. If you have done this enough times to where people start seeing that you are just auto raising the Flop everytime. They will start playing back at you and when you DO have a hand you are much more likely to get paid.
