Typical $1/3 in my card room
0.5 pro
0.5 young kid who thinks they are a pro but are not
3 bad reg
1 good reg
3 recs
The $1/3 game typically consists of the following scenarios.
1. Multiple limps and I raise with strong linear value range.
- If multiple callers I play fairly straight forwards on flop and beyond and it becomes more of a game of bingo.
- If isolating I play pretty aggressively post flop and hope to outplay opponent
*** After a few times doing this the table turns on me for messing up their chances to high hand ***
If I was trying to do this as a side hustle I would stick with $1/3 and make a little bit of cash (assuming I can actually beat the game which who knows if I really can beat the game plus the rake long term). I think the game tree is a bit more complex and challenging at $2/5 which equals recreational fun times for me. With that said, I don’t want to be the whale paying for the pros’ future kids’ college fund because I think I am better than I actually am.
