the first thing you must establish when you start a game is the type of player that you are up against,say for argument sake the blinds are 10sb and 20bb,you would not believe the amount of people that would raise every hand preflop to 80-100 chips with nothing.i'm not kidding you will get this type of player on around 40% of tables.once they do that and i'm holding a large pair i will ask a serious question to mr fish,and more often than not he is leaving the table with his tail between his legs.
