    Default Low stakes NLHE ring game guide?

    Is there any guide that covers Low stakes NLHE ring games on this site or elsewhere? If not I think I may start to write one if nothing else than to improve myself as a player. Any tips or suggestions would be awesome.

    Here you go:

    Raise AA - JJ AK, AQ
    Call with KQ, KJ, AJ, QJ - Fold to any raise
    Call raises up tp 10% the raisers stack with pocket pairs <QQ
    Reraise with QQ and better
    AA, KK are the only all in preflop hands
    Fold TPTK if you get raised at any point in a hand.
    With low pp its no set no bet after the flop
    Dont chase draws.

    All the above can change in a flash if certain conditions arise.

    You need dead money in the pot, eg a few limpers before you act or a raise and a few cold callers.
    You also need position

    I would limp in if you're in late position and there's not a lot of limpers, and fold if you don't hit your straight. If you're UTG or anywhere mid-position I'd fold.

    Shouldn't you be more inclined to limp with suited connectors when there are limpers in the pot because of the odds you're getting?

    I guess that is true... good point.

    too many people limp with suited connectors and not enough dead money in the pot before hand. SO find some dead money (i.e fish)
