View Full Version : Is this game beatable?


11-30-2005, 12:57 PM
Playing at the borgata the other some 1/2 nl. Extremely loose table as always but I couldn't make any money at it like I normally do. I am wondering if I should have changed tables but let me give you the run down:

Any raise up to $15 was called by 4-5 players pre-flop. Any suited cards connected or not, etc. I was trying to figure out a way to beat it and my initial thought was to sit on a big hand and hopefully cut the field to 2 others pre-flop. So after my aces got cracked I tried other things but just couldn't get it to work. I built my stack back to even with some small pots here and there. Any suggestions on how to beat this table. It's a common thing in the lower nl games (and maybe even the one above the 1/2). Much appreciated.

Be patient.
Don't bluff.
Punish the draws.

Thanks. The luck was just not in my favor. Some of these players make mind numbing plays then get rewarded with their 2 outs. It is part of the game. Gotta think long-term.

I can't believe this post wasn't mercilessly flamed. Too easy, I guess.

See, once the wiki gets going we can save our merciless flames there and refer the OP over to get his verbal lashing.

you don't gamble, you grind it out...put you're money in when you have the best of it, and protect it when you don't.

Well, i was being tongue-in-cheek but with a grain of seriousness, I guess you could say. I figure since i'm always advocating keeping certain "frequently revisited threads" there, might as well keep our frequent flames there too. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Thanks.
