5/10 NL is what i play and we have a name for guys like this: fish. Limping is very agressive and I wouldn't do it but its not totally horrible. Cards like that with the massive implied odds can work out great. But calling a big raise is just dumb.

so it's a 50BB max buying game? if it is that's a really weak structure that doesn't allow for a lot of play.

Yeah, that's an ultra bad play if you don't have a very deep stack. Speculative hands are sooo much harder to play when stack sizes vs. blind sizes almost guarantee an all in flop. Some of your best flops, like a flush draw and bottom pair, are going to leave you shut out when someone moves in first position. If you've both got deep stacks, I don't really hate this play (though I'm not usually good enough to pull it off), but it seems absolutely horrible when you've only got 50xBBIce
