For the past 2 times i have played 3-6-12 i havent even won a hand,
and im not playing i havent won 1 single hand last 2 times i have played 3-6-12
I play my cards but just cant seem to hit nothing,is this due to my strategy or just a bad string of luck on these tables.I do good on no limit but cant never find my stride on these tables. |

| i agree with almost everything that you said except where you stated that $5/10 is a game where you can avoid fish fests. I have found that even the second lowest spread game in a casino will still be plenty fishy. if the 3-6 game is seeing 5-7 people a flop the 5-10 will probably see 4-6 and the play is exactley the same. you really have to hit that third level to start getting into semi-real poker normally 15-30 and up does it. |

| yeah i was referring to places where the lowest limit is 2/4, and 3/6 and 4/8 are also spread, such as the taj mahal in atlantic city. poker must be a damn expensive game in your neck of the woods... and damn lucrative if you have the bankroll!! |

| I have to drive 2 to 2.5 hours to play 3/6 at lowest, most the casinos around here offer at lowest 5/10, which is a bitch because I’m not rolled for it... |

"Aggression is highly effective here, but only SELECTIVE aggression. You do NOT want to bluff these guys, as they will call you down with any pair. They may be too chickenshit to bet first, but you better believe they are loose enough to call. (Never mind the fact that they invest the same amount either way.) "
They don't invest the same amount by checking first and then calling because these passivites always believe that they will be raised if they bet first. |
