How tight is my range?

So while we are talking, thought I would ask where I would fit on the nit scale...

As far as my playable hands go:

Will play almost any suited connector except 23 and 34 rarely unless it's a pretty easy spot. I like shoving these before my stack gets too low if I am bleeding chips. I will call a raise 56 or better

Ace rag I ignore in early stages, but I do play almost any suited ace in late position or multiway pots when I have average chips. Short I'll shove them in some spots too.

Any broadway hand obv, ace nine and ten I don't like to raise utg but late obv.

Any pocket pair I will most likely see a flop with unless it's really ugly, no
chips, huge, huge raise. Also shove like acerag Short

King rag suited I will play short handed or later in the game

one gapers in some spots, usually 86 or better

Obv in most soft home games or BSPT when the reads are easier will play almost anything.

I never raise less than 2.3 and try not to go more than 1/2 to2/3 pot with average chips or better. I will flat call but unless early position trying to raise most hands I enter. Defending blinds also obv an exception.

So how doe this all fit on the nit scale, still too tight?

  • I think you should look at this differently. The question should be: how should I adapt to the table dynamics. There is no one general range that applies to all situations.

    I'm sure this isn't the response you're looking for, but no one will be able to provide you with an appropriate range....cause it depends.
  • early game i play ultra tight...closer to most pocket pairs, ajs+, kqs. And then like windbreaker said, I'll take some spots with whatever cards because my image will allow me too.

    you don't sound nitty you sound closer to average, i wonder if you might be a tad loose. its easier for me to gage online stats though.
  • doesn't sound like a nit to me...don't nits typically only play the top 10 hands? calling raises with 56 or better and playing one gapers and your worried about being a nit?

    sounds more like a 10/20 player :)
  • I know I was considered nitty for the first few years of play, but have been trying to open up more.
    I like the whole ramped aggression for tournaments, starting tighter and opening up more and more as the blinds progress and obviously deep stacks or above average chips help. Problem I have now with being too tight in the beginning stages is I don’t want to send a message that I won’t play back later and that I am willing to play post flop.
    I still think my image is tight enough that I can get away bluffing some boards, typically unless I am in push or fold, my showdown hands tend to be more top tier.
    I do often wonder if should still be opening more, adding hands like K9, Q9 in late position and playing King and ace rag more.
    I also need to get more comfortable check raising air and three betting. Being checked raised by my opponents seems to be getting me to fold quite often. I have two hands from the $550 I will post to see if others think the fold was tight or appropriate.

    i counter this by playing passively with the nuts. I let people bet into me with hands they would probably fold if I bet hard anyways. People feel like youre a mouse and that your afraid to bet even if you have a good hand. Later when you make a play at a pot they feel like your to too timid to bluff or you must really actually have it.
