Default Preflop question, trying to increase my vpip

My vpip is about 19.5 at 3/6 i feel i should increase it a little bit.
Assume a typical 3/6 table, rather loose.
How low do you open raise from MP with Axs ?
Do you limp in CO or Button after 1 limper (lag or lpp) with A7s or below?

If you are CO and the blinds are loose, they wont fold and they call alot, do you still openraise with any pocket pair ? On button ?

Thanks

over how many hands? My first 5k hands at 3/6 i had a VPIP of 30. I was also beating the game for over 6BB/100, so maybe...i dunno....somebody said i may have been running "goot". I have since settled down to around 23-24.

what is your pfr%?

the 2 situations you address are very table specific. dont be afraid to raise though. i open raise any PP from CO. from what i can see it is working out for me.

Alright thanks. Its only about 6k hands. My pfr is 14. Maybe ive been dealt somewhat worse cards than normal. I think i will try openraising all PP from CO and Button and see how that works out.

The suited aces are very table dependant. Open raising from MP, my standard is still A8s+. I raise with all suited aces behind limpers from the CO and the button.

A7s is routine. The lower ones depends on the players behind for me. IŽll open them if they are either bad postflop or I have a decent chance at getting heads up with position.

I usually raise them if I think I have a shot at isolating. If I dont and people behind are passive, then I overlimp.

44+ or so from the CO, any pair from the button.
