i think it's like, the more advanced you are, the wider your range is allowed to be because you know how to play those hands. I guess the way i see it is you have to earn the right to play a wider range. Until then, i feel it should be below 20% for sure.

I'm running around 18/14 of late. I have to. But very recently have started to sneak in the odd 89s or 9Ts from early positions.

Learn to enjoy not being in pots. Enjoy folding. Drop the cards like they're on fire. Yeuch! 56o from the button against a 40vp and a 55vp. Bin it, they're calling with any A, K or Q.

Today i started playing... 20 hands in i'm down a fuckin buy-in, almost a THOUSAND hands later i claw my way up to break even through good plays. Felt rather proud of myself. Been 5 tabling lately too. Could do with a nice heater but of late my defensive game has been solid so am hardly losing. This is what it is to tighten up, get away from the crap so the boat doesn't sink! Then you can start paddling.
