Adjusting hands that PokerStove includes in certian ranges
I'm trying to study ranges (something I know semi-novices like me need to do a lot of) and I've been using PokerStove lately to analyze my hands. I know that Stove comes up with its calculation based on a all-in scenarios to the showdown, but I think I need to adjust a lot of the hands it says has a higher value over others when I'm trying to put opponents on hands. Here are a couple of examples:
If a villain has a 25% VPIP, Stove says it should include hands like K6s but not the small pairs 55-22. This seems way off to me. Is someone (who's not an total idiot) really going to play a trash hand like K6so over 55? It gets even wackier wacky at 35%. Stove suggests that complete garbage like Q5s or K7o or 97s is better than 44. Hmmm.
I understand how technically this works, but I'm wondering how I should adjust my reading when using Stove. I'm trying to memorize (more or less) what kinds of hands get included in certain ranges, but I don think at the higher %'s Stove is a good guide.
How do you modify some of these hands? Which ones should I remove or add do you think?
