Limit to NL: How do I adjust my starting hands?

[SuitedSixes]

I am a typical TAG limit player seeing about 17% of flops. To be successful at no-limit am I going to need to loosen up my starting hands to play more small suited connectors and cold call more or is the same formula going to work? I am also playing some 6Max if this matters. Thanks in advance.

My buddy (who unfortunately is just a lurker on these boards) plays the 5-5 blind structure No Limit at Foxwoods a lot, as well as there 20-40 limit (or whatever the highest limit they happen to be offering, if they get a higher game going, that's what he plays) and he DEFINITELY gets in there with a LOT more hands in NL vs. Limit.

The reason: when you hit ... you could hit for many hundreds, maybe thousands, all for getting in for $5.

Granted, that's a 10-handed game, so your strategy will be different in 6-handed.
