How to beat 1/2-5/10 Hu

Hello,

I am a regular at this stake and struggle at the moment.
Lost 12,500 last two days alone.

My strengths are, i can eat fishes good but on the other hand i am a Fish for the tight Guys. Cant handle them well.

What is our plan?
How can we exploit the tight guys??

Barreling alot did a lot of damage to me.
Is there another hint, how to destroy guys who seems to play extreme straight forward. Imo they are so boring to play, but i am loosing against them.

i love those good lags bcause i am a big fish but ....

Whats our plan?

regards

Re: How to beat 1/2-5/10 Hu

imo retard plays are nesessary, because of two reason.

one - the game gets exiting.

two - i am exploitable so my opponent will try to exploit me and
here are the points where i want to exploit him


But those guys didnt adjust in the expected manner.
They dont try to bluff me, get it in with medium hands.

These guys folding a set, after a flush draw gets in.


Cant bluff them bcause they play less hands..

Only strategy that worcs so far is playing tighter then them and hoping for cooler.

regards

I think correct adjusting against tight guys is sitting out. Seriously

Re: How to beat 1/2-5/10 Hu

i tend not to play people who are abc/tag nits with <5% 3b hu, like you say i just find it soso boring

I guess best way is to play slightly lagier then them bluff in decent spots lockdown boards like 67tr if theyre cbetting lots and put them in pressure with small raises on certain board textures etc, make it seem like you're trying to run them over then make sure when you play the big pots you have the goods

i guess most of the mony you make vs them is gonna be them folding too much pf and also us bluffing them off medocre holdings on certain board textures, when they tend to put a lot of money in the hand they tend to have a decent hand. not my idea of fun but w/e

Try representing a draw more often, especially when you have blockers and pot every time it hits. If they are as tight as you say they are they will not be able to call off. Also C-bet 100% of flops and dont barrel without blockers or nut draws. Most tight and ABC players will check call with a draw, not lead out, exploit this.

Try to sit at as many tables as you can across different sites and only play fish

Re: How to beat 1/2-5/10 Hu

I also had a really hard time against "tight" players until I stopped bloating up pots with weak hands. If you play aggressively (I take a lot of small "stabs" at pots) they WILL adapt by calling or stacking off lighter than usual (but not crazy). You can take advantage of this - just be patient.

I have similar experience with tight players.

Thats a good idea, but its so difficult to find someone of nits who will play 3 tables. 1-2 tables aren't so profitable.

Re: How to beat 1/2-5/10 Hu

stop playing 5/10 HU and only play 1/2 HU until you are able to identify your major leaks and/or mental discipline issues

posting some hands and or stats for posters here to look at may also be helpful


and of course, since its HU you can play who you want, game selection is ALWAYS important

this argument is logical not correct.

you should be able to made 1/3 profit if you play 1 instead of 3tables.
but if you consider other parts, like getting our opponents tilt, maybe 3 and more table are a good idea.
