I play a STT home game where no one besides me believes in raising PF. Ever. 0% pfr. In general, how would you adjust your opening requirements in a game like this? Also, there is some post flop aggression, but the bet sizes are usually small enough that you will get great odds on most draws. I do well in this game but I feel like I miss out on a lot of profitable situations by playing too tight.

It sounds like you've got an ideal spot for limping a lot of good multiway hands without fear of a raise. Especially if they aren't insane postflop, it sounds like you can play it almost like PLO. Also, how do they react when you raise preflop? A lot of callers, or does it narrow the field?

First, they look at me funny. If I open-raise I can usually thin the field somewhat. However, limpers will call almost any size raise.
