There are a movement in poker that I won't never understand: you received a good hand like AK, QQ, ... in a late position. A limper calls. When is your turn, you raise 5BB or 6BB ... everybody folds and the limper calls the raise. You think: hum ... is he playing slow? Sometimes you have the chance to see, if there is a showdown, which crap he has: Q7o, A6o, J2s ... and sometimes, of course, they are able to beat you! Somebody can explain it?

I belive, but I am not sure, that they will have an implicit (spelling?) hand. One that isn't really that good from the beginning, but when they hit, they will hit big and you will have a hard time detecting it, which potentially can give them your whole stack. Like 22, and they hit a set, and so on.
all depends how the table is playing if its tight , when players raise every1 folds,the player has notices this and reraised you to steal the pot feels good to them when you fold, a good move pays off, they also do this with aces making you think have they got a big hand slow playing it, when they make this move with a crap hand they sometime hit the flop and get lucky s**t happens......

Sometimes other skins have other manners. I played 2 years at PKR and this limp-call is very normal at PKR, especcially in MTT u see it all the time. Now i play at Ongame, and for wot i saw so far not much limp-call going on there. But yeh, limp-call, horrible play, just raise m big and put pressure on them.

Hard to say without stats. If he is donk, could bee any cards, like Ax suited, KQ or smtg. Decent player is either setmining or he knows, that you steal a lot. Or if he is really beginner, he slowplays AA. Thats only my opinion offcourse
