Hello gentlemen. I am new to these forums and someone in Micro recommend that I look at the Small Stakes Hold Em starting hand chart, and follow the "tight" recommendations.

Could one of you fine people supply me with this chart? It would be greatly appreciated, and it would be much easier for me to follow than the SSH book pages. Thank you.

umm... you're using the SSH starting hand guide for No Limit Hold'em? That's a bad idea.

Basically, in NL high offsuit cards don't play nearly as well as they do in limit, while suited (and offsuit) connectors, small pairs, etc play much better because of implied odds in late position. For example, SSH reccomends raising AQ->A10s, AQo, KQ, etc. I would never play KQ in early position in NL, and I usually don't play AQ either.
