1000BB Strategy

[chekthastak]

Accept that the game is going to play much bigger. If the min buy in is $5000, I'm sure there will be a couple of guys who buy in for $10000. So don't expect a raise to $20 to get anybody of a marginal hand preflop. I wouldn't be surprised if by the end of the night pre flop raises are up to 100.

If you compare it to an online game the max buy in on a 25/50 game is $5000, while this is the minimum for a 5/5 game, so don't be surprised if this game plays more like a 25/50 and possibly a 50/100 as the game progresses and more money is on the table.

I'm not sure how you should adjust your game, because I have never played in a game where the buy ins relative to the blinds were so huge. But as far as the bets go preflop and as a result thereafter will be much larger than your normal 5/5 or 5/10 game.
