DD, one more:

5 people limp to you on in a full, loose passive live game (say 8/16 limit). you have the button. what is your limping range and what is your raising range?

assume blinds would not 3 bet w/o a premium hand.

How do you find peace of mind making fold vs call-down decisions when facing Turn raises from unknown and known passive players?

Fold often and try to feel good about it. If this was a statistic I could easily look up it would be closely correlated to my tiltiness / how I've been running. You start calling more and more when running bad, feeling they take shots at you or they can't have it again, but they do. Fold and fold and fold some more is probably right but its a work in progress.

Two questions that are somewhat related:

Let's say you step up to a new limit, or you're playing a new or difficult game. How do you accurately determine if you're a winner in the game? Assuming of course that you don't want to wait many thousands of hands for your winrate to stabilize.

When you're analyzing your play, how do keep from becoming results-oriented? In other words, how do you definitively say "I played that right, even though I lost" or even more difficult "I played that wrong, even though I won"?

Thanks.
