He didn't raise much but quite often limped with Ax/Kx sort of hands..I ended up shoving the turn after he called my bet. I thought K,10 is very possible or J,10 sort of hands and calling a nearly pot sized bet had me thinking he had something here. Another pocket pair crossed my mind.

I think I wanted him to pay to hit maybe his King/Queen sort of hands or even get it in with worse, either way I thought he'd call the river bet anyway and with his stack just wanted it all in on the turn save messing about.

Yes, yes I know I shouldn't be opening this wide from UTG and most likely deserved this BUT as played, is there any other ways I should of appraoched it?

On another note, should I bet getting rid of this table vs all these short stacks and looking for some 100blind players at the very least? They was all quite bad which kept me there but it's tricky playing vs short stacks at times, they annoy the living daylights out of me.

Yeah Yeah, fold pre, love it pascal, bad I know I get a bit bored at times playing and can't help opening wide.

Yeah I thought I should of just bet 30cents or half pot on the turn, think I got to giddy. Problem is, when shoved on the river (I expect to be behind but have to call)

you've got TPTK in a single raised pot, you're probably ahead

I´m fish on this, but for what i read usually should not have more than 2 shorties by table because you are losing value (could be playing other table with other weak players that want to give a more bigger stack). You can set filters on Stars to -min 50bb/players on table ($1+),

Other thing that want to note, in this hand there are 7 players, in the other hand you post only 4 players, you also mention playing wider because get borring so like bgomez say why not play 6max?, also you buyin with $5 in 2nl, why not try 5nl instead with those $5?

5nl/6max maybe is better for you?.
