Default Starting Hands (FLHE .50/$1.00 and below)

So here's a spreadsheet of starting hands based on position for the micro FLHE cash games. Let me know what you all think and if you feel that other hands should be added/removed. I don't have anything for the blinds as that can be up in the air depending on the size of the pot when the action gets around to you. I think that it's more of a situational thing and being out of position post flop unless you hit the flop hard or can see the next card for free (maybe call a single bet for a good draw) then if you do call it should be a check fold situation. Some of the hands in the call category in late position would turn into a fold if there is quite a bit of betting action before it makes it around to you. Anyway let me know what you all think about it.

You need to start off dealing with early position;

What hands am I going to raise with?

What hands am I going to limp with?

How am I going to play if I am not first in?

What if it is raised in front of me?

Do I need to alter this hands depending on what kind of players are in the game?

Do the same for middle and late position.

Then you will have the starting hand section of your book complete. From there it really gets complicated!

Thanks again for that Ed. I don't consider the hands above set in stone but at the same time I don't have all the questions above answered either. Sometimes I'll play them other times I won't. I think I base it more on my gut than how the table is playing and I should take how the table is playing more into consideration.
