Default I\'m lost in the blinds

Just a couple of basic questions

Assume opponent will raise in BB 40-50% of the time maybe more and wont fold. (10/20 players)

What do you do with these hands in SB?

Q2o
84s
K2o
J3s

if you complete and opponent raises do you fold(SBvsBB)?

Next question is in BB when an opponent raises and there is one or 2 callers. Assume the raiser is your average 15-18% raiser and caller is your average loose player.

3way

K6s
Q8s
J8o
T9o
Axs
A8o
any semigood suited cards 3 way stuff like 76s 86s most 1 gappers and 2 cards above 7.


4way

most suited cards except gutter trash like J3s 72s etc.
a lot of 1 gapper unsuited down to 97
pretty much same standards as above

I feel I am too loose what do you guys think?

What do you mean by "won't fold"? Won't ever fold HU in the BB when you raise from the SB?

I don't think you should ever be opencompleting the SB if the BB is raising 40-50% of his hands (unless you're slowplaying). Also, all hands listed I would fold to a raise if I somehow misclicked call. These hands all suck getting just 3-1, and out of position. Would you call a button openraise with these hands getting 3.5-1??

So pretty much openraise with anything you'd steal with on the button? and dump the rest

Nah I'm a fair bit looser opening in the SB than the Button. But I don't opencomplete anything unless except against passives, and of the 4 hands you listed I raise K2o and fold the rest.

T8o is as low as I go one gappers although 4 way any 2 suited will do 75% of the time.
