I've been reading these forums for about a month now and and it has been helping me a lot, but now I finally found something that bugs me enough to post.
Lately I've been playing 5+.50 and 10+1 SNG's on pacific poker, which seems to be full of fish. I know fish usually pay you off, and they have been so I have no complaint there, but I was wondering if I should broaden my range of hands to limp/raise with in any position, simply because I know they will call with worse hands.
For example, if I get AJo in EP and raise with 1 or 2 callers, I can still feel confident with my jack kicker if an ace comes, simply because I know many of the people will play any two face cards, and pretty much Ax, sometimes even any two suited. This usually seems to work in my favor because I'll be winning these pots the majority of the time. However, should I be looking at it a different way? Every once in a while (not all that often) they will have the king or queen kicker, so I'm wondering if i should stick to TAG play even though I know some of the hands im folding are probably going to be called by worse hands, or start raising with hands like AJo, KQ, even in EP?
Thanks in advance for the help
