    The tournament has been running for almost 2 hours (blind level:14) and I've been at this table for 6 or 7 cycles (60 hands).

    Many of the hands have played "small ball" and an infrequent 10x to 15x bb-raise or open shove. They play TP ne kicker like the nutz.

    Just limping there with 13bb looks like a trap hoping to somebody jaming behind.If you think the limper is weak and limps with a marginal hand there you can pop it up of course but youre the biggest stack at the table with 36bb and why risk it with still 2 players behind you and 75 ? Easy fold i guess^^

    I would fold. I wouldn't worry too much about a trap because he's limping half the hands he opens, but it's still 7 high. Even if he's a serial limpfolder, the value in raising with two people yet to act is marginal. Give me a much deeper stack and I'll overlimp this, but not with less than 60-70BB.
