Whats your raising range here? I am bleeding chips from the SB and I have no answers, I tried to do a forum search and found nothing. All other positions are profiting and BB is making a good amount back. Any help here pre and post flop is appreciated.

Against inattentive HUD-bots you can raise any 2 if you don't over-do it and don't trap yourself post-flop.

You know from the SB you are supposed to lose money? so you may not be bleeding as much as you think. Of course, without the blind included you should be making a lot.

Any ace, suited connectors and gappers, 2 paint cards, any pair, sometimes medium connectors.

Throw in suited kings and JT/QT/KT - I mostly fold some of the weakest aces though, because they mostly put me in trouble postflop. I tighten up on these adjustments if I feel outmatched by villian postflop OOP or if villian is the wrong type of calling station.

Well I am losing an around .40 / hand over my last 80,000 and since I am paying .50 in blinds I think this is real bad. BB by comparison I am losing .25 and paying 1.00. Overall I am raising around 11% in the SB. My current raising range when folded to is Any 2 broadway, SC, SG, PP, and sometimes Ax.

pretty hard to give a simple answer

experiment with all sorts of stuff to see what works for u depending on your image

-reraise any two sometimes when late position aggros open raise and c bet most flops when they call

-pump in a big raise when 3-4 ppl limp and fire at most flops

-complete when there are a few limpers and fire at innocent flops (same thing you'd do with a monster)

-what Fnord said

Personally I used to do the 1st 3 all the time but I've changed my game a whole lot lately and do all 3 things sparingly. First few things work really well on loose-passive preflop then weak-tight postflop tables (like u encounter on a lot of euro sites like B2B and Prima).

At fishy tables seeing a lot of cheap flops and getting paid when you hit also seems to work well
when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

I'll just add that you should have a calling range against a loose non-aggressive defender.
