I´m still not completely sure about all the preflop stuff, but figuered I would have to try some of it out before I´ll get a better feel. I didn´t think it would do that much good in 1/2 as they coldcall way more than 5/10.

Anyways, here are some hands:

 Hand #1

 Hand #3 

Same guy as hand one. Had seen him limp AA,77,QJs UTG, AJs on the BTN after 2 limpers. He would fold if he missed the flop however which is why I limped. With the AA he bet the flop. Ok to limp here ?

 Hand #7 

Havent decided on my default play when folded to the SB yet, so raising about anytwo...Not 93 and such though, but anything with a remove chance of hitting a straight or having a facecard. Any suggestions ?
Should I bet the river instead? I would have bet turn if it missed, ok ?

BB was loose-Aggr

 Hand #8 

Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 5 handed)

Second limper was: Tight-Tricky/vPassive/weak, seen limp strong hands. Should I play here if it were two loose limpers instead ? I would call K9, but feel K8 is close.

Preflop: Hero is SB with 8/images/graemlins/heart.gif, K/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
UTG folds, MP calls, Button calls, Hero folds

Also K8 on the button after a loose limper ?

Started out single tabling, usually play two, but thought I was better off focusing since I have changed alot.
Ultra small sample(100 hands), but VPIP was almost 23, 16 PFR, VPfromSB 44 /images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Thx for the help so far, it was much more fun playing this way and its nice not to feel like getting blinded away.

I'm not so sure about my game at the moment although I know I can beat 5/10 for sure. 10/20 is still a big questionmark /images/graemlins/smile.gif.

Hand 1:
I would either play this way or 3-bet when he is capable of semi-bluff raising. You said he was tricky so I would 3-bet.

Hand 2:
I play the same way.

Hand 3:
I would raise.

Hand 4:
I'm not sure but I would either bet and fold to any aggression about 70% of the time. I would check-raise about 20% of the time and check-fold the rest.

Hand 5:
I would fold preflop and call the turn. Why raise a loose player on a board like that?

Hand 6:
That's why I don't raise for a free card very often, it doesn't work often. It works better at full ring games.

Hand 7:
Q8o is as far as I go. The hand seems fine.

Hand 8:
I fold this preflop but again I'm too tight.

Thanks,

Guido

Thx.

Think I may have overdone this loosen up thing though. Probably also playing too aggro on flop and not giving people enough credit on the turn.

Hand 5 I raised because I thought he might just have the K or maybe laydown a better T.
