Easy Questions About Playing SB

[gaming_mouse]

You are in SB with Q5o. Everyone folds to you, except there is one poster, who has checked. Fold, Call, or Raise?

You are in SB with ATo. MP1 has raised, everyone else has folded. The game is loose, mostly passive. What do you do?

Thanks,

Fold in both instances.

More info please. Is this a game with a 1/3 small blind (like 3/6), or a 1/2 small blind (like 2/4)?

Does it make a difference here? I'm insta-mucking in a 1/3 structure, and 99.99% instamucking in a 1/2.

It's 2/4. The ATo one seemd like a clearer fold to me. the Q5o hands seemed like a legitimate place to steal. Thoughts?

It really depends on if BB will overdefend. Obviously you don't know anything about the poster, but I hate having hands like Q5o OOP for a whole hand.

Agreed, I am instamucking in most situations, however if the raiser is a habitual donator to the table with a bad habit of raising every hand, I have to think twice in a 1/2 structure shorthanded game.
