What limits you playing at?

mike caro wrote an article on no fold em hold em, LeeJones book is ALL ABOUT no foldem holdem (winning low limit holdem) basically says at low limits players call way too much. so adapt to different players, games.

DB - "dont try and bluff a calling station"

HOH, WLLHE - in tourneys if you wait till players tighten up after first 4ish rounds then you can experiment with stealing.

can play smallball (HOH) making half ish pot raises to steal then usually giving up if you encounter resistance (if it dosent work first time round.)
(the smaller the bet the less often it has to work)

At lower limits are players responsive to more elaborate bluffs (playing longball)? ie are they even paying attention to what you could be representing, (your betting pre flop and on each street)
is the increased risk necassary/profitable at lower limits??

Adapt -
1. Get value from calling stations.
those who tend not to fold - you get chips from when you have good hands and they call not by trying to make them fold. - "dont try to bluff a calling station" [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
they're probably the best/easiest player to play against - you just play fairly tight straightforward game and get good value from them.

2. and bluff/steal from players WHO DO FOLD to half-2/3 pot bets.

I do this a lot after a certain point in NL sit n go tourn.

Ps i only really play sngos online, where you get shorthanded and closer to the money quickly then players start to tighten up so you can do the opposite and steal, bluff, loosen up more. (but dont jeapordise your position if you dont need to)
