Loose Limit Holdem
Hello,
I have some questions to ask. All of the questions has something to do with local $1-2 limit game.
Just recently, I played in our local $1-2 limit game. It was actually a loose game and almost all of the players at table were calling on anything. There were 6-10 callers then with an 8 avg on most all hands. At some point, a pair stood up but later just found myself being beaten by trips or the like.
What’s the probability of each type of hand from straight flush on down to A or other single card high? And does the probability varies depending on the number of players calling pre-flop?
By the way, in a loose $1-2 game where almost all players call it seems to me that I should call with non-suited 2-3, 5-6 etc. and 4-6,5-7,6-8, etc. where a favorable flop can make or create an open straight shot. Similarly, I should also call on any suited pair and stay for the flush possibility. Well, with 8-10 players in I think I only have to win out of 10 hands for the risk to be justified. What do you think? And another thing, what are the combinations below Group 7 Malmuth?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Colbie
Colbie,
The number of players in a hand does not affect the probability of certain hands hitting.
You should stay away from most non-suited connectors below 9-10 in these really loose games unless you are in the blind. They will lose a lot more than they will win. Suited cards are a little different. You can play most suited card combos. I would stay away from most under 7-6 suited unless I am in the blinds. If you flop a flush or a straight draw, you are staying till the river in almost all cases. Group 7 hand rankings are 44, J9, 43s, T9, 33, 98, 64s, 22, Kxs, T7s, Q8s.
