Yes, except JTo not against very loose blinds. But just typical PP 5/10 loose, yes.

I raise from button A3o+ as well as JTs, but i like to raise JTo only if both blinds whether very tight or very loose. Usually i fold JTo.

i think typical 10/20 SH blinds are pretty loose and stupid; they usually defend their blinds with any two suited, or maybe even less. I don't usually steal with Axo (at least x being <7). my thought is that blinds usually put you on an ace, and if it flops, they will just fold. but if you don't hit your ace, it gets kind of tricky; i don't like to call any bets with ace rag with a flop that misses me.

my blind steal percentage is rather low for shorthanded play i think. so maybe i need to be more aggressive with it? let me know any flaws in my thinking....
