I found this starting hand chart (http://www.rakerace.com/poker-strategy/starting-hands-charts/preflop-strategy-starting-hands-chart/) on the site, and would like to know how much do you agree with it. I would use it for my NL2 FR/SH PokerStars games if you think it's right for a beginner like me. thx!

Imo you can't really go wrong with it. Its a bit tight - so you can add some more hands on the button for instance, but only after you feel comfortable doing so. I think its a good starting point for sure!

To start with I suggest you stick to this chart. You wont be going far wrong. As you gain some experience loosen up your play. Start raising with more hands, especially in late position to steal.

Thanks guys, i'll stick to it then. i already played a few hundred hands using this, and the reason i lost like 2-3 buy-ins because i made "too brave" postflop plays when i should have folded, so it's not the chart that's wrong but my lame postflop game:D i'll give it another shot tonight tho
