    Default Expansion of the 19

    I was wondering what the next progression of the 19 hands would be for late position. I assume ATs? or T9s?

    Scott... Don't expand your range until you can articulate here, WHY expanding your range on the button is good. What is your range you'll be expanding? Both calling and raising, or just raising? Are there times when your expanded range simply doesn't fit? What about KJo against 5 other players from the button? JTs in the same situation?
    The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than average. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled to recognize their mistakes

    Do it gradually and mainly from position. Look at gradually adding slighly less premium hands, along with more 'implied odds' type hands, like suited connectors.
    Just dipping my toes back in.

    Ah, thank you for the advice. I'll study the subject and see what I can do.

    my range is pretty similar but I also open K2s+, any particular reason you don't?

    If the blinds 3b me a lot I don't
    if the blinds don't 3b me a lot I do

    that's why I said approximately
