I know that I need to, but I don't know how to adjust my blind-stealing criteria to my opponents. I know that against really tight blinds (which there are probably 3 or 4 of in the known universe) I should steal alot. But it seems to me that against very loose blinds, I should also steal alot because they essentially have random cards and I have position.
I have played about 175K hands at 5/10 and, although I know it isn't enough for my win rates for various hands to be accurate, by grouping hands together and looking at the button and CO collectively, I have a pretty good idea of what the "threshold" hands are.
I have gradually added stealing hands since I started playing. Orginally my attempt to steal was around 25%. Now I steal a little over 40% of the time and, although my weakest stealing hands are marginally profitable, I am sure that they are horribly unprofitable against some types of opponents and extremely profitable against others.
