Default Re: Winrate at an extremely juicy, loose passive live game

Maybe you are just running bad, but in case your'e not:

Is there lots of preflop raising?

If not, are you playing drawing type hands up front?

Axs, suited connectors 78 and up, pp, etc, all become very playable hands, especially if rivers feature 2-3 or more calls.

Are you playing drawing hands strong in late position?

J10s, KQs, any suited Ace-face, etc, medium pp(77 and up) all become insta raises pf in late position if there are 4 limpers in front, and almost entirely for pot equity reasons. I would raise lots of these from the blinds also.

Also remember that hands with few outs still become playable on the flop because the pot will be offering you your 11-1. Also pushing flush and straight draws on flops to build pots is pos ev. For instance a hand like J10 on a rainbow 289 board becomes a hand I really want to push if there are at least 4-5 other players in the hand. I have likely 8 clean outs(and six very questionable ones) and want to build a pot getting paid so many ways on a draw that is like 2.5-3:1 of hitting. So goal here is to maximize the volume when I have an equity edge, rather than chase players out and "outplay" them.
