Recently a local casino opened a holdem table, stakes played are currently $3/6 limit. The rush is on and every guy who ever watched poker on TV wants to get involved. Needless to say, extreme fish pond and lots of profit potential. The problem is that the majority of these guys are sooo loose that they never fold. Prime example, I raise from UTG with pocket aces. 7 callers!!!! Of course I continue to raise throughout the hand, and lose on the river to a guy with 8-10 who stayed in after pairing his 8 on the flop. 10 on the river, I lose.
Normally I'm TAG, maybe a little looser than a real TAG, probably see around 20-25% of flops and raise most of the time when I do enter a pot. I understand that over time these loose players will lose, but I am looking for advice on how to maximize my winnings. Feel free to flame me or help me. I have thought about this for a little while and plan to implement this off-base strategy, unless you guys give me something better. I'm thinking of going more passive and seeing more flops. No more raises pre-flop, because they don't really scare anyone away, and with a minimum of 4-5 players every hand, it's rare that the best hand going in hangs on to win. Limp in and see more flops. Then bang 'em if I hit, or even have a draw, because these guys will definitely call raises, and sometimes raise with 2nd pair, gutshots, and the like. It goes against what I've learned, but I've never played against this type of totally fearless, chip spewing type of table, and I don't know what to do. Thanks. |
