Hi,
do you raise differently based on position?

This is based for full ring players and intended for villains we have little or no stats on.

So if your UTG with pocket 10s or AJs for example you don't want too many people jumping on because you made it 3x instead of 4x and you could of got rid of a few loose calls right?

If I've got pocket 7s I just 3x it or even 2.5x it because I'm set mining and anymore than 1 caller is a bonus but 10s or Jacks I don't want too many callers.

Or do you just tighten up your range in early position to prevent having this problem?

It's fairly un-exploitable as I'm not raising more based? on hand strength in general but position and stats.

What do you guys think

whatever your raise sizes you should make it slightly more from UTG than nearer the dealer, something like 3-4x from UTG and 2.5-3x on the button.

Basically you need to raise slightly more to compensate for the fact that UTG you will be Out of Position unless only the Blinds call, whereas if you raise from late position you are more likely to be in Position and therefore easier to play the hand
