Default Re: 1000BB Strategy

I definitely don't see the proper strategy as playing very tight and then hoping to get paid off huge preflop with big pairs. Makes much more sense to try to see flops with good implied odds hands, especially in position, and then make your money postflop. How much money can you actually expect to make preflop? Especially when you have folded every hand for the last two hours?

Well, if there's maniacal crazy preflop action all the time, you could conceivably wait until you get AA and just push. The odds are something like 1 in 250, right? So you'd have to be able to scoop 25 orbits worth of blinds in preflop action up to your push, assuming that you're never called. Otherwise, if the players are at all observant, they'll shut down when you play your one hand every six hours and only play back with AA.

Basically I'm saying that super-nit strategy probably won't work unless you're up against a bunch of crazy gamblers that will call when you play your one hand each day. Anyway, if you're up against that lineup, there's a lot more money to be made with drawing hands.

Default How about 3000+ BB high stake game...

Sorry if it is an offtopic, but I found it interesting.

Negreanu is going to play with other 'big boys' - Harman, Bronson & Co. The game is 300/600 NLHE, min buy-in is $100,000, but the guys might bring $1M each (taken from Danny's blog, at very end of the message), so it is going to be a 3000+ BB game.

What would be the strategy here?
