fnord- been looking thru my database and it appears that i dont have the sample size to make specific predictions- however in both UTG and hijack my biggest losers r hands like KJo, KQo, AQo, AJo while i tend to make money with the same hands soooted. also, pairs seem to have sick variance: for instance im down 3k with QQ in the hijack, and another 3.5k with 88 while im up about the same with 22 and 33 (these are all over 300k hand database). So i stick by my original statement with the caveat that perhaps we should be adding all sooted broadways to our UTG range and continue to leave out AQ.

i also think ur point about perceived ranges will allow us to successfully take down a lot of pots with small pairs on Kxx and Axx flops where x doesnt hit our hand.
