General strategy question, how tight do most of you play from the blinds? Do you fold QJs to a raise from mp? Do you fold K10s/KJs to a raise from mp? What exactly is your cut off for hands?

Sorry should give more details. Assume unknown for arguments sake, its not a UTG raise, but its MP. What is a standard range, and how different is it to say a LP raise?

depends on who did the raising. If it's an EP/MP raiser, in general it takes AJ+, KQs, a PP to call/raise. If it's someone in CO or the BTN, I'll often raise light with hands like AJ, A10, and KQo/KJo.

This all stems from the fact that I don't like playing marginal hands OOP the entire way

i fold them all no matter who the raiser is. calling with these hands oop will just get you in trouble. there is little benefit in calling unless the raiser is a huge monkey.
right now i pretty much only call oop when two or more people have entered the pot and then usually only with pp.

So then what is your minimum calling range assuming its only you and pfr?

Against a MP opener who likes a blind calling range of all pocket pairs QK, and AJ+? Against LP 3 bet all of those and call with KJ and A10 as well?

22-88 regardless of who is raising unless they are short.

Yea sorry, I misworded that. I wouldnt be 3 betting with less than 99, possibly 88. Everything else sounds pretty spot on though?
