oh jesus! your tables on FTP are nuts! Are they seriously that hard? The ones I pick on stars are usually 35%+ VPIP, and like 4-8% PFR. I will occasionally sit at a few tables like the ones you are describing. (or end up having them change to this) but then I will tighten it up a little.

25% VPIP and 10% PFR seems standard. I just finished a session where the VPIP was 30% for an hour, and it seemed loose as anything to me. I also had position on the two donks, but was a little card dead.

I may have to look into moving some money to stars. My game selection has been restricted to FTP since the Neteller collapse. What's the standard deposit method nowadays?

Isn't it a bit risky to raise AJo UTG or is not raising to passive?

It's more or less a coin-flip. In more aggresive games it's an auto-raise, in very loose-passive games with many cold-callers, a raise isn't bad, but it loses some of it's value (which, with AJ is to a relatively large extend: thinning the field).

none of these decisions are close at all....

AJo pf is close though raising is the best default.
