From the thread, a line from a Noted Poker Authority:

[ QUOTE ]
You don't raise enough before the flop. 7.7% is not enough. Your PFR should be at least in the double digits.

[/ QUOTE ]

From the Micro FAQ, and another noted poker authority, albeit an uncapitalized one:

[ QUOTE ]
PFR: preflop raise (%). The typical range is 7-10. A few posters exceed 10, but many posters begin their first 10K hands at or below 7.

[/ QUOTE ]

I don't want to start a stats post, obviously, because we have one of those going, but does the FAQ need to be revised? Why the discrepancy? Do noobies start low and then build it up? Because I'm not much higher than 7.7%, and I always figured that I was in a reasonable range, if a little tight. And now Ed Miller, by proxy, is telling me otherwise.
