beating the ultra loose game

[SoBeDude]

Your problem seems that you either don't know when you are beat or are paying off regularly when you are.

Anything is possible. But I don't pay off much when I'm beat. Of course I do some times. but not frequently. And I'm great at folding on the flop when I miss. but I probably was in the hand for 2 bets. 2 bets, fold, 2-bets, fold, 2-bets, fold. Interspersed with the hands I make and get sucked out on. The problem is, by the river, you're beat far more often than in a sane game.

Like last night in my live 10-20 12-handed game. I'm on the button with AKo. nice.

7 callers to me, I call, blinds play. 10 to see the flop. flop is 8 high rainbow. MP bets, 7 call (including me). Turn is an ace, completing the rainbow. checked to me, I bet. 4 callers (one all-in). River is a T. checked to me, I bet all-in. 2 callers. winning hand is 8Ts for rivered 2 pair. $340 pot is pushed the other way.
