Need help beating weekend hold'em home sessions!, Jeremiah Lacsamana, 2. Dec 2003 05:02

Can anyone give some kind of advice on how to beat weekend hold'em sessions with friends who are pretty much VERY loose, calling stations, and play anything with a face? I usually break even and seldom win the buy-in pot....

I would suggest raising pre flop if you have good cards. And also learn when to fold. I would also suggest playing tight, and not playing their style. You must simply wait for good hands, and when you do land a winning hand, raise. This will also make them fold if you decide you want to bluff.

Play more suited connectors, suited aces, and small pairs. Stop raising with hands like AQo if they are going to call anyway. Draw for the nuts and punish them when you get them.
