VP$IP and Preflop Raising %

[therock]

For Stars, 20 VPIP / 13 PFR is fine for an overall rate, but that is a bit confusing. You want to be tight early (12 VPIP) and open up your game as the blinds go up and players are eliminated. By Level 7 (400 BB) you should have a VPIP over 30%, opening with a raise 3/4 to 4/5 of the time.
