Bit of an update

I won a bad beat! I got 50% of $7300! I had AA and the other guy had QQ.
QQ5 on the flop, 7 on the turn, and ACE on the river! Woohoo! Minimum for bad beat at this casino is Aces over 10s.

But as for the normal grind, it still sucks. Im still losing as I cant hit a really big pot and I still keep getting run over.. like AA losing to A2. A2 hits a 2 on flop and immediately bets into me.. i raise and he calls. Of course a 2 on the turn and he bets again! ARGH!

This place is so wild. It's a 5-10 kill game. Always 6 or 7 in. I raised a kill pot under the gun with Ah Kh once and it turned into a family pot. Yes, $100 pot before the flop. A guy hit a set on a garbage flop so I got rid of it fast.

For a minute there, I thought you were describing the $7.50/$15 game at the Trop 3 years ago.

Actually, I've been to a few casinos in different cities.. this is becoming more the norm than the exception. I've been in loose games everywhere. People play anything suited, anything connected, anything almost connected, bet any pair, raised not raised, it doesnt matter.

I dont know where people are learning to play poker, but it's not from the same school that we all did

have a big enough bankroll to handle the swings from the wild play, and play normal solid poker. i would add a couple of hands that will play well multiway, such as suited aces and kings, and lower my requirements for suited connectors.
play small pairs as well, but only for trips.

dont worry about winning more pots, just try to win big ones.
