Limping into the pot means players who enter the pot by calling instead of raising.
When we say offsuit, we mean cards that are not of the same suit. The four suits in Poker are heart, diamond, spade and club. For example, the ace of spades and the ace of hearts are offsuit.

Remember that patience also has its rewards in the game of Poker as long as you know how and when to use it.
