SB opening range

SB opening range

In the past my default SB opening range was: 22+, A2s+, K2s+, Q2s+, J2s+, T7s+, 97s+, 86s+, 75s+, 65s, 54s, A2o+, K2o+, Q9o+, J9o+, T9o, 98o, 87o, 76o which works out to ~51% (674 combos).  Based on some of the recent Sauce and Peter Jennings videos I have watched, it seems like I should be stealing wider in this spot.  How wide are you guys opening and if you are wider than this, how do you defend against a BB 3bet?

50% is already wide and expoitable. No need to make it wider. It's definitely right at lower stakes and Zoom, becausr players overfold the BB.

At a midstakes+ regular table, I would not open more than 35%

Don´t forget the rake on the low limits. You need 67% for auto-profit, are players really folding that much BvB in position on the low(er) stakes? On Zoom it might actually be that players preselected the "check/fold" option ...

Once you don´t get your "autoprofit" pre, which will happen often imho, you´ll see a flop - and then the rake gets taken, really no expert in rake questions, but I thought it might influence the situation?

How should a defend 3bet range look when you open wide at lower stakes?
I mostly 4bet or fold v a 3bet but it is not enough.

What would a reasonable flat 3bet range look like as a default?
Against players who 3bet 10-15% blind vs blind I am not sure what to do with a lot of the small-mid pocket pairs and TJs~ hands.

What videos suggest you should open wider?? 50% seems way too wide vs. a good player in the bb.
