Default Re: How would you adjust?

[ QUOTE ]
Here are the typical conditions/players at the place I play (live).

It's 1/2 NL (full table). Plays like a 2/4 or 2/5 though. Standard raise is $15-20, and there are around 3 players on most flops. Players aren't exactly calling stations, but will pretty much call any bet when they are on a decent draw.

Other information: lotta limpers and straddling. If there are 6 limpers and the button raises to $20, there'll be around 3-4 players seeing the flop. Players here are quite weak, but not stupid tourists.

I can see two ways to adjust to such a game, and was wondering what you all think.

Based on your description, there's too much money going in preflop for any sort of implied odds strategy. Such games are very easy to beat.

I would wait for a big pair or AKs in the hole, limp into the field if in early position, and then push when the $20 multiway action gets back to me.

If they start folding to your limps, raising to a more reasonable value, folding to raises, or just not raising when you're in the pot, you can adopt a more rounded strategy. But until they adapt, just stick with that.
