When you play these super loose tables you get high varience right? but yet it seems like you can make a lot more than you lose if you stick to your good cards.

Do you guys like to play at these kinda tables where the pre-flop raising is a little higher than you would like but you know that they are just raising the pot with cards like A-8o?

I left after my trips lost to the 67, still ahead on the day, but not as much as i could have been.
