Re: Upping my preflop raise %
I had this same problem myself when I looked over my first 10k logged hands. I'm not sure where you are playing, but the diffrences in tables made a huge diffrence to me going from the crypto .25/.50 to the Party .50/1.
It seems that people respect raises and stealing is easier at .50/1, but that might be beacuse I've opened up from a 18/8 with AF of 2.5(when Eeegah owned me a few times at Stars!) to a 20/10 with AF of 2.75. This article helped a bit as well: http://poker.betfirms.com/holdempreflop-abdul.shtml

I've been playing the partypoker .5/1.00 rooms, and blinds actually get stolen maybe once every 1000 hands. You rarely get the chance to try it, and when you do, they just call with whatever they've got. [/ QUOTE ] every 1000 hands? that's very far from the truth.

[ QUOTE ] How can I go about raising my PFR%? [/ QUOTE ] Look for situations as part of your reasons to raise. [/ QUOTE ] would you give an example of this? that is a situation, rather than just a hand.

I had KJs in the small blind today in a Stars .50/1 game. UTG limped, folded to me. Is this worth a value raise given that we'll be 3 or 2 handed, despite poor position? [/ QUOTE ] I raise KJs in the blinds as my default play.

Now I take control, usually only losing to passives who call down with pocket pairs less than the nuts but better than my hand. As I go up in limits those people will have disappeared, but for now that tactic has worked.

Re: Upping my preflop raise %
I will raise KJs with one limper from the SB about 100% of the time, unless the limper is a known (beyond much doubt) rock.
This is a situation that I believe demands a follow-up bet on the flop, also, regardless of what falls. Anybody got a good situation where you'd raise this preflop and then check the flop?
