Default Re: Best way to beat weak $1-2 live games

Play tight, take advantage of the obvious fear these guys are playing with, and pick up on player tendencies. Sounds obvious but this is really all you need to do. Play better cards than the other players (incredibly easy against 90% of live low NL casino players), pick up on thier betting patterns and tells, and take your time to decide what you know the best play is in every situation.

One book I would suggest if you are going to be playing alot of live is "read 'em and reap". It is written by Joe Navarro and looks at alot of physical tells that the average person does without knowing, the book can be helpful if you understand that not every player is the same and only some tells will be effective for certain players, but definatly one to look into for live play.
