I've recently starting to play at a casino that allows a straddle of any amount at their 1/2 NL ($50-$200 buyin). Friday and Saturday nights the games there can be pretty wild, with live straddles of $20 - $200 every hand with 4-5 callers of the straddle (few raises). I've only played in this type of game once here and was completely card dead. Late in the game I called w/ K10s, hit a 10 high flop and called down 3-handed to win a $500 dollar pot with a pair of 10s. Someone nearly always tries to bluff at every hand, and nearly every pot is in the hundreds. Stacks get pretty deep, some $1500 and more.
Is this just too swingy of a game to play? Any advice for beating this game or any game where the straddle is unlimited?
