don't go crazy when you raise it a typical 3x the bb and you have 4-6 callers. Limp with most of your cards and put money in when you have a solid hand, they will still pay you off even if you are being pretty tight. High suited connectors do the best when lots of ppl are going to the flop. Make sure you are being very sociable and nice to the ppl that are donating their money. .... Have fun!you can play crap hands like K3s if you are confident in your ability to tell if someone else has hit say a K on the flop too and you are probably outkicked, you are mostly playing those types of hands for their flush possibilities though.Remember, JT when it makes a straight it is always the nut straight. So JTs is a pretty powerful hand. Still limp most of the time though.

raise pf to 15ish with your big hands, yes you will still get 1-2 callers. Hit sets! Dont try and make moves, just wait to hit sets, and flushes and then bet a lot, pple will call.

As the forum member who has probably put the most time in on those games, heres some advice:Don't have Queens full of Aces lose to rivered quad aces (whoops, that happened yesterday).Have Quad kings called down by someone playing the board of KKK88 (yay!).Unless your table is really raise happy, limp with any pairs 8 and under from anywhere (I will raise smaller pairs in late.)Raise all big pairs, any AK, AQ, or AJ suited from any position. If you are first in, go to 10. If there is a limper, go to 12. If there are multiple limpers (3 or more) go to 14. You will get callers from worse hands.Don't feel like you are forced to continuation bet. People love the check raise-if you have a draw to a nice hand, and you get a sketchy looking check, check it. Especially early, don't throw away you're money.Play very tight early. Your goal is to find a hand to double with, or at least take down a decent pot. 100 is not much at 1/2 blinds. Open your game up somewhat once you are over 150 or so. I cannot tell you how many times I bled away 100 dollars playing suited connectors early and drawing at hands. Find the weakest player at the table. Figure out whether they are too aggressive or a calling station. If they are too aggressive, play hands in position against this player. Find a hand like 2 pair and let them hang themselves betting into you to the river. If they are a calling station, find a hand and hammer at the pot. Pot-sized bets all the way down-you will get three calls. The other day, I had someone who thought his 9-9 was good on a 8-7-7-5-2 board, even though I raised preflop, bet out potsized postflop, 3/4 pot on the turn, and went all in for the rest of his chips on the river. These people are all over in these games-identify them and exploit them.Oftentimes, if there are 2 big stacks at the table, one is a weak player, one is a strong player, and the weak player sucked out on the strong player.Avoid putting in a lot of money in multiway situations unless you have a very strong hand or a strong draw. If you want to thin the field, bet enough to do so. Half-pot bets will not get it done.I will try to think of more advice, feel free to ask any questions you might have.
