Default limp folding at stars, 50NL. how do I adjust to it?

if there are limpers ahead of me and I raise to 4-6xbb I'm used to getting at least a caller or two but while stars seems loose pre it's not loose pre to a raise.

Should I stop raising pre with JJ/QQ and look for sets or undercard flops(and play careful?

How do I adjust playing the hands I would normally raise with inc AK and AQ?

thanks a lot

Loosen up your raising standards and keep stealing limped bets from them. They'll adjust by starting to call your raises (or keep losing $$ to you slowly), switch gears back to tight, get paid.

Don't play the limping game with big hands, AK, AQ doesn't play well multiway, and QQ-AA are easy to lose huge pots with against unknown cards.

Raise more often.

People will do 1 of 2 things (usually #2):

1. Keep folding (makes you money)
2. Start to loosen up.
