the 1-1-2 game is just another 3-6 limit game...horrible and frustrating

BUT, it's freakin frustrating when someone sucks out on you.
also, everyone has a different tolerance for variance.

This is a good place to practice hand reading skills. It is also a good place to over bet and be super agro.

Open raise all in with AA and KK.

I played 1/2 NL for the first time in my life Saturday at the Trop. Was there about 8pm. Dropped $35 in a little under two hours. Won only one pot when I limped with 44, caught a 4 on the flop, raised to $40 in MP, and folded back to me. I am comfortable in NL tournament play, but definitely need more experience in ring play.

You clearly haven't seen the higher limit Live at the Bike games. Talk about suckouts and variance.

This is not as bad a play as you may think.

Re: Is it me or....
 

I played 1/2 NL at Casino WIndsor this past weekend and almost every single hand someone would raise to 12 total. There was no point in limping in cause I think I may have saw 4 total hands without a big raise pf. Also a player minriased to $4 with 3,8 and went off on a guy for calling with K,4. LOL cant get better than that.

LOL, that's hilarious!!! and the guy replies "cuz they were suited!!!"

Re: Is it me or....
 

When I played 1/2 at the Trop I was horrified at some of the calls as well. When I played it at the Borg the players seem to play better, but there are still bad players at that game. Many pots were raised preflop though.
