i find myself just to the left of one tag and 4 seats down from me another tag ... how does this effect your play ???


do you consider alot of unsuited broadways unplayable in this situation???

i know what i can do with one tag to my left, very simple, but if another one is a few seats away, how does this change overall strategy?

It doesn't. If he's really tight then just don't give him action.

Right. As always, play KQ unsuited as if it's the best hand at the table unless you have reason to think otherwise.

Having a read on them is an advantage. It's an easy fold when they bet. If they smooth call your preflop raise, then look for your monster flop and play cautious against them.

To me, it's not so much that you can't be in a hand against a tight aggressive player as much as you HAVE to hang in against the loose, and loose aggressive players.

When I'm in the hand with a loose player and a tight player, I look for some weakness from the tight player postflop so I can raise and isolate against the loose player.
It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

Why not find another table?
If you put all your faith in the river, you are up shit's creek

thats the thing, i'll sit down at a great table, then after an hour or so, right from under me i'll have two tags, one on either side of me... but im still making money so im not ready to get up and leave yet.
