Blinds are 200/400. We have little less than 3BB.
Would you agree that from early positions we aim towards value hand pushes? I mean we can take negative edge for 5bb with wider "crappy " hands cuz we still have some FE, but when we get let's say <3bb then we must tightened up quite a bit? In this case something like 22+ A2s+ A5o+ K8s+ K9o+ Q8s+ Qto J9s, JTo (Nash is 44+ A2s+ A7o+ K8s+ KTo+ Q9s+ QJo JTs)

agree with your ideas here, it obv makes sense to push only 'value' range when we have no fold equity. Having said that i sometimes try to 'generate' some FE in such spots by minraising, both with monsters and with hands that dont want a call. It works especially well on (tight) fishes and massive multitablers who can easily overlook it.

btw what your screen name on Party? I dont think its fair that you (probably) know mine and i dont know yours :) pm?

gl and see ya at the tables!

With 2.5-3bb, I will be pushing about 40%. We are far away from the money. You should expect to get called by SB and BB quite often imo, so I would go for hands that have more playability postflop, such as 87s, J9s, some like that. Over 50% of our stack is in the middle. We still have 1 more orbit to go and K3o seems too loose for my taste. K3s-ok, K9o-ok.

But I wouldn't go as tight as you suggest.
