Hey spoon!
I'd say that 4 times is probably still too loose from UTG. I'd aim for at least 6 times.Quote:
you should be open raising something like four times as many hands from the button as you do from UTG
Keep in mind, that you probably want to be under 50% even on your (loosest) button range... so tighten those early-position ranges dramatically.

I have something that I think is worth mentioning for Post-Flop:
Heads-up hands (that is, when it's just you and 1 opponent) are very different from multi-way hands (when it's you and more than 1 opponent).
The number of opponents makes a huge difference to the strength of your hand.
In multi-way hands, you need a stronger hand to win. Also, a bluff is less likely to win.
So play more passively in multi-way hands and more aggressively in heads-up pots.
