Silver Level
I've been pondering this for a few days, and here's some background info. I've been four-tabling 5/10nl 6max on full tilt lately. I've done ok overall, but it seems to me that I seem to be more profitable when playing with a couple of regs and a couple of fish/complete donks. Lately, I've found tables with a vpip of 60+ (which I thought should be a good thing.) I sit, play tight aggressive, try to stick to the game I know, wait for good cards to fall and play them appropriately. At times I will win pretty well. But around the table after about 100 hands, I find that I'll be down around ten bucks when it is filled with fish and donks that are 60/40 etc. The problem is that I cannot push them out of a hand (when you are either cbetting or sitting on a good hand.) They obviously havent noticed that I've been playing around 20/15 and are thinking on the first level. I know you can't bluff bad players. But what can you do when you have tptk are on the button, everyone checks to you, and you bet the pot for the fact that you know the other three cold callers are going to follow? I've tried bumping the blinds preflop up to around 6 or 7 times with four limpers and I'm on the button (and I realize that is just giving them more ev to call, but the idea here is to make them look at their K5 and think is this really worth 70c?).....but that only seems to push out around one of em. It just feels like I'm playing freerolls or on the play chips side. Maybe I've just been on a cold run at those tables,....I dunno...bottom line, I'm sick of donks drawing out on me....So what my overall question is, do you think there is something as "too loose" of a table. I.e. should I stay away from putting money on the tables that are almost play chip.....
