Okay, I'll confess: one of my primary strats of late is just multicamping. Partly it's a back-to-basics exercise in discipline, and partly it's oh-hell, it's making me money i can dig.

And I'm whoring a bit, too, which leads me to:
many bonuses clear faster at higher stakes, and it's preferable to sit at a 2/4 than a 100NL. So here's my stab at LHE starting hands that can get you through a bunch of hands relatively "safely". Someone fix my stab.

limp 22-99
raise TT-QQ
reraise KK/AA

limp AKo early, raise late
raise AKs, AQs

Suited connectors: KQS, KJs, QJs, JTs, QTs (?), T9s

Big offsuit cards: only AQo, KQo, AJo, KJo

Axs: CO and button only. could dump A9-6s for added safety. (Let's not open that whole argument up again. The advantage of straightable aces is small but real)
-------------
That's just a draft. Def. some room for additions from better players than I.

 1) You're missing a lot of value with not raising/reraising with mid-large pairs.

2) You're missing even more value by not raising AKo

3) KJo sucks ass.

4) A6s > A5s. High card value is more valuable than any outside wheel draw.

Mainly, to stick to a chart like you have here is way too weak tight and no where near as situational dependant as it should be. If you're going to follow a chart, you might as well use SSH's because thats at least proven.

Thanks jeff. If i remember my SSH, AKo wasn't a raiser in EP. I'll do a refresher there.
edit: nvm it's not a re-raiser

It's hard to be a reraiser in EP...but it definately should be.

LHE isn't a big pot game unless it's regularly 5+ to every flop. Even in that case, you're giving up too much by playing too tight.
