But when i go and play at the .5/1 tables i loose my butt, as players seem to chase to the river card and i lose a good hand. I am a tight player i feel, but i also make bad decisions too. Is this normal? I play on Party Poker
The 2/4 tables in Vegas are jus as bad if not worse than the .5/1 tables at Party Poker. This is a long run game and you will make money off those players who chase and call to the river without odds over the long run. You also need to chase better/smarter and play speculative hands that could turn into monsters when you get a bunch of limpers in the pot. Pick up Small Stakes Holdem by Ed Miller and then come back with a 300BB bankroll. You should be killing that game after that.
