Re: Basic Question - High Ante\'s No Fold\'em 7Stud
RobNottsUK -
It seems like that type of game is exactly what any poker player (in any game) is looking for. You WANT people playing garbage hands and calling all the way down trying to suck out. These guys won't care that you're a rock and will pay off your monsters every time. The adjustments in all games is really the same idea - tighten way up, play only premium hands/situations, never bluff, value bet always. When you have the most equity in a pot, it's to your advantage if people are calling down - even if they are mathmatically correct in doing so. Just because they put themselvesin a spot on 6th where they have odds to draw to a 4-outer doesn't mean that you aren't getting the best of it. You will get more swings this way, though. There will be plenty of big pots where someone catches up on the end, and it can get real frustrating. Just remember that overall there will be more pots where you hold up in the long run. If getting sucked out on a lot and the swingy nature tilts you, it may be better not to play in this game.
