$300 is just over break even, but it's also important to know if the money will go in the pot or not, not only to say he has it in his stack.

To call $20 with One gap connector I should make $875.
So.... should I
A) tighten up my range?
B) Buy in for $1000 to open up my range?
C) limp with these hands and try to play a small multi way pot and play post flop accordingly?
The average is 4 players to see flop. And lots like to chase. And lots will pay you off.
Whatever the case. It's a great game and I've done well in it the last few months but have recently hit a down swing. Just looking for some pointers that will help clean up my strategy. Thanks for all input!

SC's and suited one gappers would need a lot of people calling a raise to make it profitable. I would want at least 5 other people in the hand, depending on my hand strength, my position, and the raise amount.
I wouldn't start limping with these hands, that would be awful. Don't buy in more to open up your range either. If anything, tighten up your CALLING RANGE with most of those hands. Make sure the pot is multiway and there aren't any known squeezers otb or in the blinds.
