Default Re: How to play loose

My approach: I try whenever possible to play cash game strategy - limp with suited Aces, any pocket pair, suited connectors, etc. Your goal is to flop the nuts or a draw to the nuts (and try to put together a nut hand as cheaply as possible) - and then pick up some chips. Trying to bluff people out of the pots at this stage is silly - you win a small pot or you lose a big one. You can TRY ding it - but mostly for the purposes of gathering information about players - how do they react to a pot-sized bet? Half-pot? Check raise? (but you are better off sitting back and leting other people do your investigative work for you, so that you can reap the rewards later).

JMHO
