I have tried a similar approach a few times. The problems I have with it are the Qx suited and Kx suited. It leads you into dangerous territory so often when you limp with these hands. If you dont hit a monster you never really know where you are kicker wise. Also you can limp with as many of those marginal hands as you want, but you are still waiting for a very strong connection before you can really continue on. What if that connection doesnt come? I have gotten myself fairly low on chips because I got a bunch of hands that fall within your category of limping with, only to end up shortstacked before I could actually make it pay off. Then when I get in this position I have to try for a bluff, or raise with a weak kicker (semi-bluff), and I often get caught by someone with a better hand.
