    see the problem being full tabled cant always wait for hands to chip up so even on position people now are starting to call of and play back way to much compared to earlier so the hijack position and these spots open up to become valuble steal and stack increase positions to chip up imo...

    Out of all the hands you mentioned above, I would say raise with AQ/77+. An argument can be made for folding 77 and 88 as well but I'd put in a raise here with those hands.

    fold UTGish, except maybe hands like AQ and nine nine or 1010... but if you open raise with them under 20 BBs you should be going all the way with it. No raise-folding under 20 BBs.

    start trying to just raise 2.5x the bb. If reraised you only lose 750 instead of 1000 -1200. And if called you still have chance to making a hand and if not the flop doesn't hit you well just check and fold losing a minimal amount
