Tight table, online casinos and day of the week.
 
At times, the only table is one that has 30-50% seeing the flop. How do I go in and break open the table? I adjust my play via Agg/Pass and L vs T, yet I can't get any momentum going. Other than jumping sites, how should one approach this to be more successful?

If I can't get any actionable cards, I will change tables. After 3 or 4 tables, I will change sites. Anyone do this or have any thoughts regarding it?

Minus the peak hours/days (Fri+Sat), what are some of the good ideas/conciderations to have when approaching the rest of the week/days? Thx.

Why play here? Seriously, maybe you could beat this game for a marginal win rate, but there are so many better games elsewhere. Even if you're clearing a bonus, there are better bonus opportunities than having to play at a table like this.

Huh?

30-50%

Pretty big range. 30% is a tight table. 50% is a dream of 6 BBs an hour crushing, don't even have time to count the winnings.

Over 50%, and you are looking at a everybody all the way, limp fest river show down, where all you do is nut peddle, ABC poker. Perhaps the highest variance, most boring, least challenging way to play.

Besides pure flop numbers don't tell you everything. How many are at the river? Will they re-raise you with bottom pair, or do they see the flop and all fold to any aggression?

What they do after the flop has more effect on profits than simply how many see it.
