Hey guys, I usually play on piggs at the micro tables, 10/20c tables. I sometimes get stuck with hands such as 33,44,66 etc because I am never sure whether to raise with them pre or just flat call. I usually raise with them in LP or on the button but if you one of the first to act is it generally better to just limp in with hands such as 55?

Should you be raising because you can represent hands such as AQ,AK etc or should you be limping with hands such as these? If for example you raise OOP with 55 and you get a caller, the flop comes A,3, 7 and you lead out a bet trying to represent an Ace, he calls...this puts you in a tricky turn spot!

Im not sure if I play these hands correctly and I would love some advice, thanks
