1: Fold. You have a trouble hand UTG and you have no read on how the table is going to be playing. Blinds are also low and trivial at this point

2: Has it been folded around to you? If so open for a standard raise. If there are limpers in front, usually limp along sometimes raise

3: Has it been folded around to you? Is the BB tight? Does he see a lot of flops? Does he defend his BB a lot? What stage of the tournament is it? This all changes the answers. I will say that I used to complete a wide range of hands from the SB if I was getting 7:1 or 9:1... lately I've began folding all junk (ex Q5) regardless of the odds (unless its like 13:1 15:1)

If a cash game, and folded around I just chop If online fold some and raise some

Also realize that these questions r all situational so your answers r gunna change depending no how the table is playing your image your stack your opponents stack your opponents etc

The fact that you are posting these questions, focusing on only your hole cards and your position at the table is worrysome. Stack sizes? Blinds? Action in front of you? Reads on players left to act? Your table image? The list goes on and on and on.

Of course, the fact that you have a serious gambling problem and are posting these questions is much more worrysom, but meh... some people insist on learning life the hard way.
