    Default Looking for some preflop advice from shorthanded regulars...

    I have recently been trying to make the switch from full ring nl to 6max, and i have a few question about how much i need to loosen up preflop, and what hands i should be open raising, limping, or calling from all positions.

    UTG: Currently i am raising all pps, (excepts sometimes limping 22-55 on weak, loose tables), scs 67+, QJ0+, KTs+, ATo+.

    UTG+1: See above list.

    CO: All of above, and throwing in some suited gappers like T8s, J9s, QTs, K9s, and Axs.

    BTN: All of above, in a multiway limped pot usually i will limp scs and suited gappers, but i am also raising Axo if folded around to me on button.

    SB: normally, im just calling raises or limping from here with scs or pps < TT. However, with just one limper in the pot, i will raise KJo+ and ATo+ and pps around 88+.

    BB: Pretty much same range as SB.


    My reraising range is usually TT+, and AQs+.


    Im kinda wondering if im being to loose in my pf raising range, especially oop. Im just looking for any feedback or problems you see with my pf game. Thanks for the help.

    19/8 or more on the pfr.

    thats about right for small stakes imo.

    You dont need to raise all pps at <100nl nor do you need to be particualrly loose as bad players will still pay you strong hands.

    I just started...but I'm not raising close to that amount of hands from EP and I'm running 25/17. Probably because I'm playing fewer hands UTG and UTG+1, and open raising just about everything from the button.
