Limit 5-card draw (high) in the SB

[beset7]

What are good guidelines for completing in the small blind? In other games w/ blind bets I lower my starting requirements just slightly. Is Draw the same or do your opening requirements remain fairly static? I'm just learning the game and working through require reading (almost none of which was written under the modern sb/bb format), but it just seems (intuitively) that starting hand requirements shouldn't change much because you are in such a lousy position.

If you are interested in playing draw w/blinds, you'll want to check out some of Michael Weisenberg's articles in CardPlayer magazine. Go to www.cardplayer.com and find the archive of magazine articles. He has written a few articles on draw w/blinds as it is played online at sites like Paradise and Planet. He has advice on how to play from each position, which I won't rehash here.
