Yeah, I've played in a bunch of these games over the years. I'd play them insanely tight pre-. If you see the flop with 30 to 40 small bets in the pot it's almost impossible to find a correct fold with any kind of back door draw to the nuts, and I'd always get suckered in -- so I'd just tighten it way down. I've booked some bizarrely big wins, but found them excruciating to play.
