Re: Home Game Strategy
I've always felt that in games like this no matter what your skill level you are at best a 60% faviorite. (where in a normal TAG game you can be around 90% against the right players) So it takes alot more cards to win. When the cards are running bad you can lose pretty quick because you get odds to ever draw you want to take and get beat by some really weird (read dumb ass) hands. But when you manage to hit a few draws you get paid off so largely that you can dominate easily.
By that token, I would say you played well.
However I also find that when you play against these guys the massive bet is in order. Very few will put their whole tournament on line pre flop or on the flop unless they have a monster. Find some tells and then just monster overbet at them. I don't like this in cash games because one call and your broke, but in a tourney its worth it.
