"You're part Indian?? Me too! I'm a member of the Slapaho tribe."So last night I went to play the live 1-2 game over on Bandera for the second time. The games runs from 8:30 onward Thurs/Sat/Monday, starting with a quick freeroll and turning into cash games, followed by social $10 tournies when it goes down to one table and the dealers want to ( Read more... )

full ring, donk game, especially 11 handed, you should always follow the "no set, no bet" mantra. just make a strong hand and value bet the crap out of it. pot control one/two pair hands.

playing LAG relies on fold equity, which is pretty much non-existent in games like that.

it was anywhere between 7-11 people during the night, but I can't see ONLY playing suited connecters and pockets (like, I'm folding low pp EP)- give action to get it, right? Granted, even with my image I was still getting plenty of action, but it doesn't seem right given the attitude of the game- people were basically freerolling me every time I'd bust with the best hand.

Yeah, LAG was right out as soon as I realized what was going on, but you still have to keep the 'gamblers' interested in playing pots with you. I like your advice though- "make a strong hand..." I didn't see a single set all night, maybe one straight and one flush :P It's hard to control the pot when you have <100x BB and EVERYONE has less than you. I didn't see any deepstack play until 4am, and THAT was observing the other table before going home.
