Hey AA,

I think you hit a key point here. I disagreed with some of the strategy suggestions posted earlier, but didn't want to say anything. The way I found to beat the 2/5 game (especailly if it was passive) was to call to with any hand that could flop big, pairs as stated earlier and suited connectors. Big unsuited cards weren't as important. Then if you didn't hit the flop get out immediately. The 5/5 is more variable and you need to adjust strategy more both for the texture of the game and the individual players, but in 2/5 I tend to play hands that could flop big as long as I can get in for $2 (although I am much more selective in early position).
