Does any argument about open raising pocket pairs in EP really hold true for 2nl
Renton's 169 hand SS-NLHE ring strategy: Preflop
Starting hand strategy for tight games
I think its important, even for novices, to be able to adjust to tight or loose games. My preflop strategy in a tight game is not much different from a loose game except for a few factors:
-I open (raise first in) with all pocket pairs in all positions. As games get tighter, the ability to take away the pot on the flop with a continuation bet becomes greater. Also, if you elevate the stakes with a small pocket pair by raising preflop, you’ll have a much easier time getting all in with it after the flop, even if you are out of position when you hit your set.
