    wondering where the 3 extra chairs at my 6max table came from

    Default Table tightens

    Table goes from 44/6 to 17/7. How to respond?

    1) Only play mid - low SCs as drawing hands, and only when I'm pretty sure I can limp late w/ little fear of raise?
    2) Tighten up as well and only play premium hands that am willing to 3- or 4-bet PF?
    3) Stop limping low PPs and unsuited broadway (except as in #1) because I was getting pushed off of EP & MP limps by > 6BB Raises?
    4) Try and play LAG and steal more pots w/out SDs?
    5) Find another table.....
    6) Any other suggestions?

    Thx Pelion! I wasn't having much fun trying to squeeze out .75 pots every 80 or so hands anyhoo....

    Oh, and forgot to mention in OP. This is $10NL FR

    With table selection as it is at those stakes (and at least up to 100NL) you shouldnt be sitting at a table with anything like those stats for longer than it takes you to realise.

    you get up and leave.
    LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

    Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

    c'mon, spoon. yes, the players suck...even i crush that game w/o table selection. but, i still practice it. it makes the games even juicier.

    if a table goes from over 40 to under 25, its time to find another table. there are FAR too many out there to pick from.

    10bb/100 = ownage
    20bb/100 = pwnage.

    Id rather make 20bb/100
