Default Commerce 20/40 Players: Preflop Question

Commerce 20/40

Background: I have a reputation for being a very tight preflop player. More watchful players also give me credit for being aggressive postflop.

I'm a little unsure about my standard line for early position, regardless of limpers in front.

UTG, UTG+1, and MP1:
A2s-A7s. I fold.
A8s-A9s. I limp.
ATs-AKs. I raise.

22-99. I limp.
TT-AA. I raise.

I find that A7s and lower gets me in trouble because there are still lots of 20/40 players who play Axo, and of course, my kicker is less likely to be good against such hands.

I find that all pairs end up getting the requisite implied odds to flop a set. Players like to limp preflop.

Yes, some games I'll limp in with A2s UTG. Some games I'll raise A7s from MP1. Some games I'll throw 66 away UTG. Some games I'll raise 77 UTG.

But I'm wondering about your standard line at most 20/40 Commerce games. You know, when you sit down and you're dealt these hands in EP in the first orbit or so.

Btw, Mike L., Klepton, et al., please PM me when you'll next be at Commerce. I'd like to meet up when you can.
