Sup? I'm playing some 1/2 for sthief09's OIC. Here's some decisions that came up listed in order of difficulty.

--- Hand 1 ---

Very loose passive table. UTG is especially awful, the Button is loose and the blinds are loose. Call or fold?

Villain here is incredibly loose. What's your plan? What's your plan if you improved to trips or a flush? What if you didn't improve?

I thought at least one of these questions would ask if you should fold JJ to a preflop cap 8-way at the 2+2 table.

JJ is an easy fold. KK is a closer decision.

Hand 1: With your read and those cold callers I probably call this.

Hand 2: I think I call this, both played this as if they were on a flush draw like yourself. I do think it is close though.

Hand 3: Hmm.....being a weak a$$ at 1/2 that I am, I probably check call this. If I had hit the flush, I think I go for a check raise on the river. With trips, I think I check call. How aggro is villian, you say he is loose but would he bet without the nizzles?

BTW How long have been into the OIC? I started Thursday night and have 20BBs left at 2/4 before I hit 3/6.

Hand 1: Call. How loose are UTG+1 and MP2 though?

Hand 2: Call the river. No reads, can you do?

Hand 3: Bet the river, calling a raise. I would bet if I improved to trips or flush.

Thanks for your reply. I'll reply to your comments about the hands later. I'm at 1/2 currently which I hope to finish in the next hour or so. Here are my 0.5/1 stats.
