I pretty much adjust range per position, if were raising limpers SB BB you usually get a few callers, we are going to miss the flop to often and make a loss we cant make accurate decisions on opponents range. Its also dangerous playing spec hands because to many players are drawn in by draws.
If we look at win ratio based on position we should find that most profit is made on the button then hi jack, cut off and so forth and in almost all cases losses are made from big and small blind, (this is ofcourse for a consistant winner over a long period) But it proves just how serious the context of range should be taken

it depends on how many limpers are involved in the hand. i will not raise in those positions unless i have really strong hands like AJ, maybe A10 if no one shows strengh in the hand. be careful with limpers, because one of them may be hiding a monster like aces or kings by slowplaying. with medium and top pairs try to isolate so your odds of winnings the hand increase and try to get value of your hand. aces arent that good in a 5 players pot.

I play these positions usually only with Cat 1 and Cat 2 hands by raising standard 4xBB. My play will, however, depend on table manners. If there are too many LAG players I'll usually only play Cat 1 hands. There is also another aspect. If only 2 players limped before me and I'm in BB I will limp with speculative hand. I will also limp in SB if 1 player limped before me.

I only raise Strong Card when I have a lot of limps. AA, KK, QQ, JJ, 10, AK, AQ The other pockets i will call and try get set.
I raise always 3bb + 1bb for each limp.
Example blinds 50/100; 5 people limps i will raise 300+500=800(if it is more than 30% of my stack I go all-in)

+1 The only thing I would change is pocket 10's. I'd put them together with the other pockets. Also, AK and AQ must be suited.

table is loose or tight
if the table is mostly loose aggresive you should be very careful because if there are three limpers ready to see the flop the can hit and put you in a tough decision (they can get a draw flush or a draw straight)
if they table is tight passive you can raise 4-7 BB to fold most of them, maybe all,
pay attention when nobody limps and just one of the latest calls specially if he is a good player he could be hiding some mounster hand and is just waiting for you to make a false step

Hi. What's the meaning behind your forum username here and the significance of the number?
Thx.

Why? Ask yourself, why?
I think you might find a lot more advantage in that answer, than the range question.

Seems like anymore all the math, stats and best starting hands have went to the dogs, with so many donkeys in the games. They are flat running over a-a and anything else you start with. Getting to the point of absurdity. I watched pocket aces get beat over and over yesterday, by of all hands a-4. The flop came with two 4s several times. I hear you guys screaming "in the long run", lol how long a run jeeez these amateurs and donks just keep on sucking out.
