have been palying there the past 2 days to clear the bonus and it seems that the blinds will call you with anything when you open raise from the CO,also extremely loose on flop,they call the pfr with all sorts of rubbish if the flop is any bit raggy.
So waht is the best line to take,dont try steal with mediocre hands,bluff less on flop, what about if you raise pf with say AK,AQ and miss, do you continue betting against 3 players, ifind even with 2 they call all the way with any pair or even overcards?
Is it always this loose on the 6 max? or course you clean up when you hit good hands /images/graemlins/cool.gif

Many tables are that loose - but sometimes you find one that is a bit tighter.

I use GameTime + - and make decisions on steal blinding which depend on seeing what VP$IP the blinds have. When they are in the 30s you can steal. When they are 50 or above - value bet only.

Lets say you are first in from the button. You have a hand like A8o or KTo and you KNOW that the BB is going to call.

You should still raise since your hand is better than his random two cards. Also you have position on him so you expect to make a small profit from your hand.

Hands you want to avoid stealing with against him are for example small pocket pairs like 22-44 since you will have no idea if you are ahead or behind on the flop.
