So, I have been trying the following thing lately:
Pick a session you are going to do this in, also might be advisable to drop down stakes a level or two. Most likely you wont record a winning session, definitely not at first. I wouldnt do it on a full table, 6 is better, also no limit or pot limit is preferrable over limit. Now, make a conscious effort to play 40 - 50 % of hands. Flame away... Alright now that you got that out of your system let me say why I do this: Its an exercise, the point being to improve post flop play. I noticed a large improvement in my reads from doing this occasionally, and even started to record winning sessions doing this (however, that might be luck, and I realize if I played tighter I could have won more in those sessions). What do yall think? |

Well with six max, are you including the blinds? Because most peple play high thirties if you include the blinds, so it might not be that much of a jump. This might be a good idea, but only if it is a pretty big decrease in limits and you don't let it affect your play at your normal limits. For me, i'd want to play too many hands when I returned to my normal game.
I did do it at a 1/2 home game that my non-serious poker playing freinds had, because playing tight would be way to boring and useless. Also, I took this to mean limit. If you were referring to NL, I think a $100-200 player would be able to try a a bunch of different things that they wouldn't want to try at their normal level when they jumped down to a $10-$25, so it might be more helpful for a NL player. |

Im talking money put in voluntarily, and i also did mention that this is better tried at no limit, since you have many more options in what to do.

I think what you stand to gain with this, more than the additional post-flop practice (which you could get just by playing more poker in general), is advertising yourself as a very loose player, and making a lot more money when you flop top two pair or a straight. For that reason, I’d suggest this might be more effective in B&M than online, where not enough of the table will be paying attention.
That said, I won’t be trying it anytime soon. |
