Does anyone call this? What about a raise to 6 or 8?

sorry for all the questions, i'm trying to do away with my old weak-tight playstyle and get better.

Always call this.

Use http://www.zerodivide.cx/converter/

two plus two format.

Bukem, change the 7's to 22-55. Still an insta-call?

yes. goto ssnl and look at the bottom of the faq for the 5/10 rule.

I will always call this standard raise for set value. I will occassionally bring this in for a PFR into an unraised pot from any position to make it difficult for opponents to put me on a hand.

Call, mmmmm and its not even close.

[ahnuld]

Yes call. Also, you dont need to keep posting hands, I think it would be more beneficial for you to go and read alot of ssnl posts or post these hands there. Most of these are basic strategy and thought, so if you are not sure of them, dont be embarassed, but go learn.

[Leptyne]

My personal opinion gleaned from 2+2 is that playing the smaller sets 22-55 is questionable. Maybe a longterm (how long is that?) break-even prop. For every time you stack someone you'll get stacked with set over set. Fine for long-term, but the highest of highs and the lowest of lows the moment it happens. If there's really no plus EV to this then I limit their use to LP where I can at least play with position. Just personal taste. I really hate trying to play a difficult villain OOP, or an unknown. To me it always pays to know who I have position on, and who has position on me.
