So playing $0.05/0.10 PLO 6 ring at bodog last night had good run to start and up about $7, then after about 50 hands cards just went dead on me. I wasn't making my draws and getting bad starting cards 9 out of 10 hands. I had to tighten way up and couldn't get any money when I had a good hand because everyone would fold. So I got to steal a couple of blinds and made 2 profitable bluffs which helped the hemorage.
The stupid thing was these guys were playing crap hands with 2 pair winning on a 4 card straight board with 3 callers! The table devolved into a skittish mix of stupid LAG play and nit play. I actually won with a pair of nines on a 4 card flush table with 3 other callers, in PLO!
I just wasn't sure how to play these guys because a bet either lead to folds all around or re-raise after re-raise, I just couldn't get a handle on their play, couple of tight one lag and 2 others who I couldn't get a feel for, plus the turnover which brought an all new unknown every 10 minutes.
So my question is when you aren't getting good hands and your drawing hands aren't making on the flop should you just quit and come back later when your potential profit in so low or neg expectiation?
