Default Its been a while

Going to Windsor tomorrow night. Havnt played in a live casino in like 3 years. Been playing online alot.

What are the live games like nowadays? Should I be limping and calling PF more? I know I can out play these idiots, I just need some advice on PF strategy.

Thanks

A starting point would be to tell us what game you are planning on playing...is it 3/6 limit hold'em, 1/2 No Limit, or something else...hell, it could even be a 3/6 limit omaha hi/lo game, lets try more specifics.

Live $1/$2 everywhere plays like online .05/.10 or even .01/.02. Nobody wants to fold pre-flop and large pre-flop raises will get callers. A 10 big blind pre-flop raise will get called by hands like Q-8 offsuited and 4-2 suited. Bet, raise and re-raise or just fold. No limping, calling, or fancy plays with top 20% hole cards. No one will notice if you are playing tight-aggressive; fold every hand for an hour, raise pre-flop and you will get called by all kinds of funny hands. So lots of suckouts, but your monster hands get paid off huge.

Edit: I assume you are playing 1/2 no limit?
