Depends weather theyre loose passive or tight passive, if they're loose passive then you should mainly stick to a value range and just value bet them relentlessly. if they're tight passive then you should open up and bluff them off of hands alot. In either case if they suddenly start playing back at you then its easy to get away from. If there is a mix of tight passive and loose passive then you adjust according to player. of coursw this is assuming you are talking about no limit holdem

Just play good poker. Open many hands but play small ball. Give yourself as many opportunities to win as possible.

This is very good advice.

Tight passive, just rob them blind. They will only play back at you with nuts or near nuts.

When the tension builds and builds, hopefully you will find yourself with a monster hand, and they will make a huge mistake vs. you.

As Loafes said, loose passive, don't bluff. Just bet the ba-jeezes out of your made hands. They will pay you.

I agree with what is being said above. If they are playing tight passive then you steal a lot of blinds and make a lot of flop bets. You will slowly chip up.

Loose passive poker is very profitable, but also can be very frustrating. Your high pocket pairs will greatly diminish in value after you raise preflop and get four callers. You also need to widen your value range to get maximum value out of them.

Do not worry about short term losses. Be more concerned about making correct decisions. There is always variance in poker and if played well the money will always show up in the long run.
