Default Re: Stealing/defending blinds

My attempt to steal is at 41% which is probably just a little too high for my abilities right now. 35-40% is the generally accepted range for stealing. Your folded BB to steal is probably pretty good.

As for steal ranges, most playable hands from the Button for sure.

My usual range for the CO would include
T9s+, 44+, JTo+, Q8s+, K6s+, Axs, K9o+, A6o+

From the Button I open it up to
87s+, 22+, T9o+, Q5s+, K4s+, Axs, K7o+, Axo

I definetly mix it up and throw in some worse hands occasionally, or fold some of those in the above range. A lot depends on how tight the blinds are and how well they play.

Yes, -.11 for the BB is excellent, but your sample size is WAY too small to get even close to an idea as to how you are doing there.
