tonight i found myself in an odd situation for my normally loose-passive 3-6 game.
the player on my left and the player on my right seemed to be "pals" but only in that they knew eachother, i think that they actually hated eachother, hahaha, when one raised btf he was always called or 3-bet by the other, and on the flop and beyond they were always locking horns.
it all started when one of them caught a 2 outer on the river with 33 vs the others AJ on a board of AJ9-4-3. they went 4 bets on the river. from then on it was like they were "trying" to put a bad beat on eachother, it was a sickening display to say the least.
anyways, their wars were taking the biggest toll on me stuck in the middle, i had to tighten up immensely and i spent most of the session draining chips away and ended up losing 25 BB's after a series of hands in which i came along for the ride with a solid draw but missed and one KK cracked by A8.
how do you guys handle this situation? just like a normal wild game, tighten up like crazy and wait it out?
