Default Re: What do you do when you can never open-raise?

Never give up. If everyone is limping in and you limp in with worthy hands, you'll win more BB when you hit. Nofoldemholdem is fine, just work on being a better post-flop player. You can also set the mood and sometimes swing a loose-passive into a tight game (which is great for you if the fish can't play tight well). Patience is important too. with blinds that low, you SHOULD be limping with more hands and looking to catch, sounds like you are getting 6-1 small bets on all your starting hands, which can't be bad when you hit and start making real bets.

This might not work so well at Party, since the blinds go up so fast. I made the switch to pokerstars for the T1500 and 10 minute levels. It's easier to let go when you don't need to win a pot every 20 hands. The players are far more skilled there, however.

I'm guessing that you pushed in UTG with those kings?
