I play at a casino that typically only has 1/2 NL Hold'em. The players are very loose but passive pre-flop. Any suited cards that stretch reasonably and up. Most only raise with pocket QQ and up while some expand to hands like AJ suited. Only a few players realize the importance of position. I try to play pretty conservative when I am there, but also trying to see cheap flops with cards with potential to hit the flop hard. Problem is there hasn't been a number I can find to raise my premium holdings if I raise to little I get 3 or 4 callers and too much I don't get any. The players float with many hands, small pocket pairs and backdoor draws and if they catch the flop most call the same as they would if they were floating. So I'm here to ask, what types of strategies you guys would employ against a table like this?

This thread is probably gonna be locked or moved but here is little advice:

The amount to raise is generally gonna be the most you can raise and still get callers. This is if you are playing tight. The looser your range, then the less bb's u want to raise. So in early position raise more of an amount than in late position. There is other obvious reasons for this as well.

In reality, most of your money is gonna be made post-flop because players like this are bound to make huge mistakes post-flop. In general, you should want callers because opponents cannot make mistakes deeper in the hand if they fold pre-flop.
