I read Stox's book some weeks ago, but basically skipped the preflop section. This thread encouraged me to go through the section again and compare his hand chart to the one I use and my pokertracker stats.
I found that basically the open raising range in the book (the hand chart on p.12) is quite a bit looser than mine, especially with the small pairs and suited connectors. I sometimes muck 22 on the button, Stox open raises it from the CO; and he opens hand slike T9s or 98s much earlier than I do. Also his recommendations for opening ace and king high are usually a kicker looser than I'm used to.
So I guess I will try loosening up my default raising standards a bit and see how that works out. I currently run at 24/20 and think this might be a little too nitty...
