Player C Medium Stack 1400+ , guards blinds, raises button or in late
position with anything
Player D low -medium stack 800 , wishing for quality cards to double up.
Based on the table information, and me coming in 5th place a number of
times... What style is the best approach for play at this table?
Buyin? Location?
This looks like a standard game situation. At this point, with 14 - 17 x
BB, you can afford to be patient and capitalize on your opponents mistakes.
Player D is the likely loosest player at this point. Meaning he is apt to
play back at raises/aggression with medium aces, two broadway, and pairs like 22. Especially beginning on the
next level.
The stacks you want to attack are A,B,C. You can raise to 3xBB against
Player A to steal. Against Player C, you are likely to have to push to take
his blinds. Player B can be played with by making c-bets, and
folding/quitting to any counter-aggression.
But most importantly, I wouldn't really be thinking about "making a move" on this level. I would relax and let other's make a mistake here. You should be able to pickup one set of blinds, and maintain some semblance of a stack over the next 10 hands, and begin to pickup aggression on the following levels.
As to coming in 5th place more often than you like, I cannot comment with no information.
