More loose in 1/2 than higher levels?

[amax]

This might very well be an obvious question, but I'll ask it anyway. The reason for my question is that most advice I read about the SH forum concerns higher level 5/10/ and above. But I've also read that playing as in high level games, though it will be profitable in 1/2 it will not be optimal. (Don't get me wrong even if I wanted to play the high level way, I'm still far far away from it /images/graemlins/smile.gif). But since I'm aiming for 1/2 for the time being I would like to be doing as well as possible there.

I just wan't to know if there are any big differences.

Should one be more loose in starting hands in 1/2 than higher levels? Because of the number of loose passive are much higher in 1/2??

Yes, there are many more opportunities to limp small pairs, medium suited connectors, and suited aces in the Party 1/2 game, so an expert would play quite a few more hands there than at higher levels. Got to be quick to release losers though, and don't try to bluff except in the most prime opportunities.

To a point, ie calling a middle pair with 4 in already. Just don't become a crack head who calls any face and kicker and any face suited. Also judge the table if retards are playing the blinds raising them with ace anything is a crapout as they will defend it with anything and will chase down anything on a brick board.....

Bluff the winning rocks only the rest of the players are just a bunch of rabbits who chase anything down..

Bluff the losing rocks as well.

It's hard to be a losing rock at this game, Way too much dead money......
