Re: A few Preflop Line checks....
Hand 1: Need some stats on the 2 limpers. If they are loose, and you can play postflop, I like.
Hand 2: This is a terrible fold. Hand 3: Easy call. Hand 4: Need reads to make a decision. If you're really skilled postflop and knew your opponents, a call is ok. Otherwise, fold it. |

Re: A few Preflop Line checks....
Did CO raise in Hand 2? If so, I would fold also (although if CO knows what he's doing, he should be raising a wider range than usual, as a poster).
In Hands 1 and 3, I think limping and raising are both okay. I'd probably lean a little toward limping after just two limpers, at an 0.5/1 table where you're probably going to have to show down the best hand to win. (Also, you already have the Button. I'd be a little more inclined to raise from the CO.) I'd call in Hand 4, like you did. I don't think folding would be awful or anything, though. |

Re: A few Preflop Line checks....
Hand one is more player dependant, here I'll usually limp, but I can see the reasoning for a raise.
Hand two I hope to god he raised, if he checked and you folded, that is super weak. Raise if no one else has. Hand 3 I'm more likely to raise than limp. |

Re: A few Preflop Line checks....
My two cents worth:
1. Personally I call but I think raise would be fair enough. 2. Good fold if behind a raise. 3. For me this is a definate limp. I find Q10 to be a trap hand (even sooted). 4. I am folding this even if I am in a loose mood. |

Raise the 1st three. Fold the last. Nuff said.

It's possible I should fold anyway. (Make the hand 74s instead, and I would fold. Sometimes I'd fold the 75s, too. It would sort of depend on my mood.) |

Re: A few Preflop Line checks....
I call Hand 4 at 6max a lot, FWIW.
