Easy money in ca$h game

[tie4690]

when playing cash game, its easy to get impatient and lost tons of money, but I have a simple way to make all the money you need.

1. START AT LOW STAKES
These are the tables where you find the most fish. Theses poor players, aka fish, rarely preflop raise, they are calling stations, and they are very profitable.

2. BE PATIENT
If you expect to make instant cash, you are playing the wrong game. Sure, here or there you can make a killing in a few minutes. But overall, poker is a game of patients, the best players in the world wait for the great hands.

3. DONT ALWAYS PLAY YOUR CARDS, BUT YOU OPPONENTS
I calculated it, and I make 35% of my earnings through making my opponents muck their hands. If your are going to play a weak suited connector(56x) or a questionable hand(K9) in a 8 or more handed table, RAISE, DONT CALL. This is an important strategy, and it will make/save you a lot of money. If you face a re-raise, you may want to fold, because you know you are beat, OR CALL, because you can put you opponent on AA, KK, AK, QQ, JJ. And if the flop comes out 5 6 2 rainbow, You can check knowing you opponent will bet. At this point, you should smooth call like you also have an over pair, and you should take down a good sized pot. In online play, a check usually means a player has a weak hand or totally missed the flop. If a player first to act checks, i will bet almost all the time . Just a feeler bet, just 2x the blind bet. i have taken down so much money with theses types of bets. It makes sense: you are bluffing at a pot lets say has 6 BB bets in it, if you commit 2 BB bets in it, you only have to take this pot down 1/3 times to make a profit. Its a way to make guaranteed $ so when you hit your huge hand you can double up with $100, as opposed to $80.

i hope this has helped. See you at the tables

That's a very dangerous little bit of advice there. I don't know the levels you are playing at, but I don't see how that can be anything else than extremely dangerous, and definetely EV-. Floating the pot is definetely a good tool to use every now and then, but you pretty much need position to do that. In NL100 and NL200 someone playing aces will most often then play them very fast and strong. They normally make the standard pot size bet on the flop. Now OOP I can't see anything positive coming out of just calling with nothing, because chances are that if your opponent did in fact have that strong overpair, he will fire another big bet on the turn. You can't call anymore, so check-raising is the only option that might work, but the pot itself will be so big that the overpair will have a hard time getting away from it. Not to mention that stack sizes play a huge role in a situation like this. If you wanted to try and steal in a situation like that, a big check-raise is your best option. If you get called, well, you need to be done with the hand. Overall, the safest move naturally is to fold to the original pre-flop re-raise. If that's something that works for you, great, but I wouldn't recommend anyone playing like that.

i think he was talking about having 56s that hand, not K9! lol
so he's slow playing, not floating with garbage.
