After losing quite a bit at 5/10 I've decided to head back down to 1/2 and 2/4. One thing that I consistently lose on is low pocket pairs. In 5/10, you can raise PF and with a cont. bet you can take down the pot, even if their are overs.

In these low limit games on stars, people are calling the whole way to catch that miracle ace. not just one person, 2 or 3. So although I am ahead PF, the table as a whole is ahead by the river and I will lose money in the long run this way. Is the best bet then to just fold PF? I'm playing 6-max so looking for sets does not seem that profitable.

Thoughts?

You don't really discuss position here. How you play low PP against 2 or 3 opponents very much depends on position. You don't want to get into a pissing match over chips w/ a weak hand out of position.
