How do opening ranges change when we get deepstacked?

How will our opening range change when we're 200bbs deep on a 200bb avg stack table? Are we opening a similar frequency? Low suited cards and low pairs start losing value? What are they replaced by? Suited-one face card hands?

i assuem it depends a lot on who is in what seat... position matters much more now. if you are in MP and CO/BTN are more active and agressive there is really not much you can do except to tighten up. but if they are quite passive you can actually open a lot of hinds because you will play most pots in position vs the blinds. but being deep against an aggressive / competent 3 bettor, there is not much you can do about it.

From what I remember of playing about with Snowie, 200bb starting stacks didn't change its opening ranges very much at all. (3b/4b/5b ranges and frequencies would be different though). I didn't do much studying of deep stacks, but I think things only really change at about 300bb effective.
