You really should raise with your premium hands. It's harder to thin the field in low-limit games, and so you have to stomach the larger variance, but still you must raise 'em up.

Some hands are no brainers AA, KK, QQ, AK, JJ, TT

But what about 88, 77. 66 etc

I get a few bad beats after raising and find myself just calling with low- middle pairs to avoid losing 2x my BB after the board comes up with the inevitable A or K (no one folds aces in limit? right?). Its frustrating to see your middle pairs get beaten every time.

Middle pairs are just so hard to play. Any suggestions? And no, fold'em is not what I am looking for
