So... I'm heading out to my local casino tomorrow to play in a 1-5 spread game. the game just has one blind (of a dollar).

I've played in the game a couple of times before, and can expect two scenarios. If you guys could help me decide how to adjust my play, I would appreciate it.

1.) the game will be raised to 5 dollars preflop and there will be about three players (two and the rairer) after which people will continue to bet the five dollars on the flop, turn, and river.

2.) the game will have 6 or 7 callers for the one dollar blind, and most pots will see a flop without being raised. On the flop, somebody will bet five dollars, but most of the callers won't stick around.

I have the following questions:

a.) how should I play preflop in either situation?
b.) It seems like in scenario two I can't play drawing hands (like suited connecters) because I won't be getting odds to draw to my cards. is that right? or do I play them just trying to hit the flop completely
c.) any other random advice you could offer

-thank you very much in advance
