Default Re: loose live game and otis is short stacked

If you are playing a short stack with no money behind, try playing hella tight. Just wait for good starting hands. If you rarely play a hand, people will respect your c-bets. I've found that this strategy slowing acculmalates money. Once you have a stack built up you can loosen up and play your regular style.

I agree with just calling PF looking for a set. Can't believe that donkey called with A2. Sorry bud...

There is a reason playing super tight works in almost all games, and its not cause people learn to respect your raises.

Hey, that happens it doesn't bother me at all. I just think maybe I made it tougher on myself by bloating the pot preflop. I think a c-bet is mandatory because the pot is relatively big, I'm usually good here and I'm very vulnerable to overs so I have to try to take it down right now.

That's what I get for being short stacked, I was really wondering the most about preflop though, trying not to be too results oriented..
