Re: Hand selection (long)
The percentage of hands that you should play must depend on, the total number of players (N), the number of blinds (N_b), and the number of fish (N_fish) in the game. My formula for the ratio of the hands that you should play UTG is a*(N_b+b*N_fish)/N. The constants a and b should be on the order of 1, and must depend on the game and the nature of the fish.
Note that if there are no fish and no blinds you should not play. Also, if you are in a late position and its folded to you, you should replace N by the number of remaining players in the game and thus play more often.
