Of course.

Thats why its been said in this thread that limping drawing hands oop is a poor play at strong tables, that is, at tables with lots of players like you.

Its not a poor play at soft tables. Sure its not as +EV to see a flop out of position with QTs as it is to see one in position. BUT it is +EV. And if you want to maximise your EV at a soft table you should limp QTs in almost any position.


Also open limping as opposed to open raising allows you to see flops with very deep stack/pot ratios, allowing you to play deepstack poker after the flop, thereby allowing you have a bigger edge over your opponent by giving you the ability to make bigger laydowns and bluffs against them.
