All fold to you, on the button. What are your minimum standards for a raise?

All fold to you in the SB, same question.

Head-up (so the SB has position on later rounds), same question.

I realize the answer is highly dependent on the opponents style. I hope to hear some guidelines and initiate discussion. As a starting point for opponents styles, let's assume an "average" online $3-6 game (that is what I generally play).

you will never steal the blind in a 3-6 game I guarantee you...unless they hold 23o or 27o but sometimes they will call....

They do fold sometimes, although I agree they are too loose with their calls. Anyway, we each have some criteria for choosing amongst raise/limp/fold. Anyone care to get the ball rolling?
