Last weekend i visited my local B&M for a bit of 2/4 - a normal weekend game for me. Problem was the list was off the wall, so I made the decision to jump to 3/6.
Turns out, the 3/6 game was way looser and way more aggressive than the 2/4 game. 1/3 pots would be capped pre-flop, lots of people hanging to the river.. a very wild game..
Question becomes, when faced with a table chock full of loose opponents (at least 4 LAG's, couple of LP's, 1 maniac, NO tight players) averaging 5-6 to a flop, should I loosen up to 'loose' game requirements even though i'm potentially paying 4 small bets to see a flop? Seems like a good way to burn the bankroll.
Basically, i'm not used to truly LAG players who will bet and raise with sweet nothing in that quantity. For example, I got raised all the way down by a guy holding a backdoor flush draw at the flop (and thats it) who of course drew out. It's fairly impossible to put these guys on a hand since they'll play anything like aces whether they have them or not. Post flop i cant really give them credit for anything.
