Re: Adjusting to loose live play after playing tight internet games
Porkchop,
I have played the stakes you mentioned in a casino for quite awhile. IMO, most of these type players are the tourist/newbie-that-learned-from-TV types (or gumpy old locals..) that came all the way to the casino, rented a room, gonna stay all weekend. That means that they will play nearly every hand for any amount & never fold because they came to GAMBLE not sit on the sidelines & fold all the time. They want action. One casino game is the same as another to them...poker, slots, blackjack, whatever. "You can't win if you're not in the hand"...that's a quote I heard from one of these types.
In a nutshell, these are the players that feed the poker machine but variance can be rough when playing with them.
