So I'm writing this beginners guide for a friend of mine who will be playing the lowest stakes (2NL 25NL). Currently I'm trying to figure out the drawing hands section.

I play 50 NL and I think It's not a good idea to advise him to play his draws the same way as I play them, aggressive, because of all the loose passive players that populate these lowest stakes. I also realized I really don't have a plan myself, I play them intuitive.

So I have a few questions :

You do need folding equity to bet your draws, right? How much do you need with say 12 outs (Axs) and you bet the pot? I have trouble accounting for the deception, the bigger implied odds and the free card on the turn if you bet your draws.

Do you bet more often in position or do you take the free card on the flop? Do you raise a lot?

What do you generally do on a missed turn if you've bet OOP on the flop?

Do you always take the free card on the turn in position? I'm asking this because betting the river with a busted draw looks a lot like a busted draw if you checked behind on the turn. Which mean you will lose the hand a majority of the time.

If you decide to just call a bet, what kind of odds are you looking for on the flop? On the turn? I know the pot odds part, but implied are more important I think. How much do you expect to win generally on later streets with a flush? Straight? Also do you factor in stealing the pot with a busted draw when opp shows weakness?

I hope to spark some good discussion. Thanks in advance for the helpful replies.
