craziest game ever
 

I am playing in the wildest game I have ever seen. Capped 3-4 ways on EVERY street and it is 6 max. J3s just took down a 48 big bet pot after he capped it pre flop. How do I play in a game like this? Play tight pre flop? The avg pot is litteraly 20 big bets.

Play more suited connectors and be ready to fold the flop without a good draw. High-card hands go way down in value, since you'll probably need more than a pair to win.

Suited connectors are terrible in this spot. You are investing way too much preflop. It kills your implied odds. You want to play hands with high preflop equity - high card hands, just like you advise against. You don't win as often, but you much more than your share, and you win really big when you do.

Agreed, same goes to low pairs.

And get AA. And don't fold it.

I did, but it didnt stand a chance v Q4o

I think your implied odds are great when it is capped on every street. Not as good as it would be if you could limp PF, but not bad. I meant throw out stuff like A2o or QTo, not AJs or whatever. Of course high hands are good.

You pay 2 BB PF to flop a set (7.5-to-1 against). You only need to win an additional 15 BB postflop to make small PPs worth it. With pots capped on every street, how is this not a good play?
