1 Week into 6-max .5/1, some questions.

I'm still new to LHE myself, so take what I say with a *few* grains of salt.

I think your SB completion is high from the winning player's stats that I've seen. I've seen them anywhere from 25-40%, but not one over 40. I would work on tightening up considerably there since the winner's have more experience and can probably play a few more marginal hands OOP in the SB.

As far as re-raising with PP's, I agree with nuts in that folding or re-raising is far better. Reason is that you don't have the implied odds like you do in NL (where "set = Stack" most times) and overcards are pretty much going to be priced in from the raise and can catch you later in the hand. In otherwords your small pair isn't winning $$$ unless it hits a set, and most of the time it won't. With a medium pair like 77/88 you have some showdown value as you might have TP or can at least beat middle pair. I fold 22-66 here always outside of the blinds. Note that in the blinds, I am still calling with these smaller pairs.

Finally with the AA hand I think it's a mistake not to re-raise here. If you can get more money in and tie your opponent to the pot then by all means do so. Also, if he is really AG, then go for a turn CR. The good thing about really AG foe's is that sometimes they even play back and you can squeeze yet another raise out of them.
