Default How can I best take advantage of this oddly-structured 4/8 game?

Hey guys,

I found this game b&m, but the b&m guys told me to toss it out to you...

So anyways, this weekend I went into the city to play some b&m. I found this really juicy 4-8 game (actually the casino only spreads 4-8, and all of them are pretty weak). but the blinds are only 1-2, initial raise is up to 6 with a cap at 14.

So with the blinds at 1-2 in a 4-8 game, are there any strategic adjustments I should make/consider when getting into the hand for a quarter of a bet? After the flop everything else proceeds as normal, $4 flop bets and $8 turn/river bets.

What came to mind initially is that pre-flop my implied odds go up, as I am investing only a quarter of a bet to win half and full bets. Also, my odds on the flop are cut down, as the pot only contains quarter bets and I have to call half bets to draw. I do not know, however if this should alter any "normal play", and i thought I would throw it out and see if you guys had any suggestions.


Here is a link to some similar discussion:

I thought you guys might have some thoughts/suggestions to add.


Thanks,

GS
