I'm mostly SnG player but, just made the decision to add some cash game play to my arsenal. I'd be playing at $2NL.
I got a couple questions about some strategy against specific opponents.
PokerStars - $0.02 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 4 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 3
SB: $2.58
BB: $2.40
UTG: $2.19
Hero (BTN): $3.07
SB posts SB $0.01, BB posts BB $0.02
Pre Flop: ($0.03) Hero has 8:diamond: J:diamond:
fold, Hero raises to $0.06, fold, BB calls $0.04
Flop: ($0.13, 2 players) Q:club: A:club: 7:heart:
BB checks, Hero bets $0.09, BB calls $0.09
Turn: ($0.31, 2 players) 3:heart:
BB checks, Hero bets $0.22, BB calls $0.22
River: ($0.75, 2 players) K:diamond:
BB checks, Hero bets $0.55, fold
Hero wins $0.72
BB was calling a lot of my pre-flop raises. I want to know if triple barreling is gonna work at these stakes. Are most players gonna spew chips away chasing draws? Or will they play more straightforward passive, calling down with good hands?
I realize that it's going to depend on each specific villain, but I guess my real question is about the quality of play at the smallest stakes.
