Full Tilt Poker is weak tight
I’ve been focusing my poker playing efforts the past few days on the Full Tilt full ring games. The kind folks on Full Tilt gave me a juicy bonus as I had not played on there for a while.
Anyway, I’ve been playing in the 50 BB min rooms (to avoid the short stackers), and you see a lot of multi-tabling regulars. However, the vast majority of these guys are playing weak-tight, fit or fold poker. This means there are less donks to pay you off with big hands. However, these weak-tighties are extremely predictable; most are not much more than set miners.
I’ve been exploiting these weak-tights by opening up my game in late position. I’ll often raise sooooted gappers, even with limpers. If I can get the flop heads up in position, I’ll continuation bet almost any flop, regardless of whether I hit. I’ve been surprised at just how often they will call my raises preflop then check-fold instantly to my C-bets.
Although it is a different kettle of fish to some of the looser European poker sites, it is quite refreshing: I know if I bet and get check raised I can bin top pair top kicker 99% of the time against these nits. Essentially you have to make money by taking down lots of small pots on the flop - my went to showdown is below 20% - very low for the microstakes. I suggest you get your ass over to Full Tilt today, and get exploiting!
