You need to raise a lot more preflop. Someone with 25 vpip should have about a 17-18 pfr.

I think my raising isn't as high as others for two reasons:

1) I try to play in passive games and try to see cheap flops with marginal preflop holdings against a field.

2) I know my tendency to get retarded when I (correctly) preflop raise out of position and completely miss the flop.

Perhaps I should look at my preflop raise from the BB? I do a lot of calling Cutoff or Button raisers with marginal holdings knowing I'm getting 3-to-1. Should I have more of a "if I'm playing it from the BB, I'm raising with it" mentality?
