Was playing NL 50 last night 6max and came accross a table where atleast 3-4 of the players were raising atleast 4x BB each hand. It was the type of game where is was very difficult to get read on players, but you had the opportunity to cash in if you made the right play obviously. Just wondering how others deal with these type of tables, is patience the key?

I ended up finishing even in 5hrs, was up and down so much - but was happy with even at the end. There was one guy that rebuy'd atleast 4 times

Also i have got to say it ws the most exciting table i've played on.

Just wait on hands generally, sometimes you can out LAGG the LAGGS but against a real maniac you just need to wait for cards.

sit back and relax.

just enjoy the double ups when you have something and they dont.

They tend to call your re-raise most of the time. At least that is my experience w/ them.

I was playing 50NL table yesterday while waiting for class, turned $15 into $140 in matter of 30 minutes.
Right now I turned $15 into $100 in about a hour.

Its all about patience.
