Ponks,

Regarding open raising -

ATo - UTG (marginal) or UTG+1
A9o - CO
KJo - UTG (marginal) or UTG+1
KTo - CO
QJo - UTG+1 (marginal) or CO
55 - depends on table texture (blinds specifically)
Q9s - CO (marginal, depends on blinds)
T9s - Button (if blinds are relatively tight)
76s - typically not open raising
T8s - typically not open raising

Wow, I don't play any of them UTG (except perhaps ATo or KJo if the table is real fishy) and I play the looser 1/2 tables. Am I missing out on profit or do you need mad postflop skills to play these profitably?

I think you are misunderstanding a bit. The only hands I'm advocating open raising UTG (and marginally so) are ATo and KJo.
