First live casino experience

I'll be heading to the casino to play some nl cash games for the first time next week. I mostly play online sngs/tournaments and as far cash games online, I've played up to $.10/.25nl. I'll be playing $1/$2 at the casino and I wanted to know in general how the play stacks up at a live casino.

they suck and will draw to flushes everytime

LOL. Pretty true.

1/2 nl live is a pretty weak game. Aggressiveness pays off very well. Wait for hands, make bets, and get paid off. Play it straight up, its very easy. If you are not scared to bet you will do fine.

To Make It Simple Play Tight-Aggresive and you will come out with profit

Thanks, I will be playing live tomorrow also. Tight-Aggressive is my M.O.
Hope to do well!

70 percent of the table are completely clueless and as stated before will draw to inside straights on every street even if you bet pot and they have 3 others waiting to act behind them. Prepare to gamble a little bit, however.

Dude, 10c/25c online is probably tougher than $1/$2 live.

^ this.

Play TAG unless you find some reason to do otherwise, most of the time you can just sit back and wait for hands because all kinds of garbage will pay you off.

There's a flipside to that, of course - it's a high variance game. Be prepared for that and you'll be fine.

I just came back from Turning Stone casino in New York and played mostly $1 $2. Half the table are donks, only about 3 people know what they are doing. A lot of people call big bets with low percentage draws so you can make good money but the occasional suck out can get very annoying.

^funny because that's the casino I'm planning to go to. Nice to know there's a lot of donks . Anything else you can tell me about it? Thanks!

I have not played in games, because brazil is not allowed, but I have great desire to play. It is quite different than the Internet?
