Last night was my first session playing 5/10 shorthanded. I'm actually amazed at how many bad players there are compared to the full games, it's like night and day. Anyways, I'm still relatively new to this SH stuff so I had a few questions. I'm not exactly sure what a typical game is yet, but assume games where there are 1-2 aggressive spots and several other loose, passive players (is this typical?):

KJs UTG - raise?

KJo UTG - fold/raise/call?

A7s in CO after 1 caller - raise?

QTs UTG - fold or call?

AJo in BB after 3 limpers - raise?

I like Peter's responses on these...it's a pretty good general rule to NEVER limp first in and rarely limp after one limper. Lots of raise or fold preflop in the shorthanded tables.

Sounds good, thanks for the responses. I'm just trying to get a feel for what adjustments in preflop play I need to make.
