I am a winning low limit player tight/aggressive/imaginative,doing well in all games full-shorthanded-heads- up except one type.
When there is a player or players very aggressive preflop (almost every hand raised) in a full ring game or shorthanded I can't seem to ever beat the game. I have no trouble w/ this type player heads up-in fact i prefer them--just can't beat them if another person or persons is in the game.
I have read numerous books including HFAP but can't seem to come up with a good strategy--reraising-playing extra tight--etc.. they always seem to have it when i call--i do feel i'm folding my big blind too much but do you call w/ 83s type of hands? Short of giving up this type of game (which i have considered but feel it's essential to my development as a player) i would appreciate any advice you can give me. Thanks
