Default Re: Absolute blind structure change, 2/3 SB @ 3/6

The main things are:

1. You have to play every hand when completing a 2/3 blind.

2. You should open up the range of hands you will call raises with from the small blind. Your odds improve considerably over a 1/3 or 1/2 blind structure.

3. You should be limp-folding sometimes in short-handed (particularly heads-up) pots.

4. A game-theoretic corollary to #3: If you are limp-folding sometimes in the SB, you should also be limp-reraising from that position as well. Mix it up more. (There is less reason to limp-reraise in a 1/2 structure because given the odds you're open-completing much less often and almost never complete-folding, since the odds on the completion and on calling the raise are the same).
