Default Starting hand strait....too tight???

I play mostly 1/2 and 2/4, so i want my starting hand strait to work for those levels.

Basically, I find my self pushing too many marginal hands post flop when I should be folding all together, I think.

So here's my strait, revised from a post I found here....

http://www.tightpoker.com/texasholde...ldem_guide.doc
----------------------------------------
Power Hands: AA, KK, QQ –
Best Played In: Any Position
Raised: Always
Folded: Never
Requisite Callers: Any Number
------------------------------------
Top Pair Hands: AK, AQ, AJ, KQ, KJ –

Best Played In: Middle/Late Position
Raised: AK, AQ- Often in any position, AJ, KQ, KJ-Sometimes in late position
Folded: AK-Never, AQ-Rarely, AJ, KQ, KJ-Often
Requisite Callers: To Raise—one or less
------------------------------------------
Middle Pocket Pairs: JJ, TT, 99 –
Best Played In: Any Position
Raised: Sometimes in Late Position
Folded: Sometimes against heavy betting
---------------------------------------------

Drawing Hands: AT,KQ, KJ, QJ, KT, QT, JT, T9, 89, Axs, 22:99 –
Best Played In: Late Position (Button/One off Button)
Raised: Rarely
Folded: Often
Requisite Callers: At least three in addition to blinds
----------------------------------------------------------

I find that when I play to this, im VPIP about 12% and im loosing alot of Suited hands that are playable (J9s, T8s)

Is this too tight preflop? thoughts...

I the other side, I have been doing about 4BB/100 over the last 5K hands, which is better than i have done before, but am i loosing some potential money here on certain situations.
