That was billed as a very barebones guide even in 2007. I strongly doubt that Sauce would endorse anyone at all to use such a preflop strategy in 2016, except maybe if you had a week to teach your grandma how to play poker so she could tear it up in the retirement home series of poker.

At 25NL/50NL, I generally use Snowie's 100NL ranges, but sometimes go a bit looser and sometimes a little tighter, depending on who is on the table.

22 AQo KQo A2s KTs Q9s J9s T8s 97s 87s 76s

ATo utg is a pretty spew, and AJo is usually -ev unless it's a soft game.

I assume you meant

22+ AQo+ KQo A2s+ KTs+ Q9s+ J9s+ T8s+ 97s+ 87s 76s

Yes?

Mine is pretty much exactly 14% standard, but will definitely start opening up K10s, K9s, Q10s, J9s, A8o, KJo, etc if there are fish in the blinds and the rest of the table is pretty passive.

If only I can fix my time machine. 2007 sounds like a great time to play.
