I spend a lot of time playing zoon and I think the best strategy is to be loose because the fish are abandoning a lot to get better cards and steal more blinds. The problem of being nit is that the fish people will also look for better cards. My recommendation is to play regular tables as they are with the fish with which we earn money ......

depends it may be in the $ 1 you lost for a bad beats and in the other you indicate the variance you could see helped the best would be that if you are new I have a jueg tihg and play your hands of strong value betting and after a minimum 5k of hands see if your game mode is rentrable or not since only 1 day of game does not say anything

it is impossible to give an accurate answer because if you are very tihg and have many mans with you put pressure to make you abandon your hand and not pay when you bet the most advisable is to adapt your game to the rivals according to the content of the table
Finding out how aggro the people to my left are will drastically impact my raising range.swannymojo said:

there is no emotion it is a very common mistake to lose more than one box if you do not get up but if you know how to control you can stay calmly and recover what is lost

How to identify fish quickly
I just picked up starting playing again but now more seriously and notice that the fish get eaten by the sharks so quickly that I seems to miss out on them. I play 50NL no-limit holdem and have about 14k hands in my database (5k of the last two months).
Is not re-buying automatically and I not having many hands on them enough indication of them being fish. Also not playing full stack seems like a good indication.

I briefly looked to see if this has been asked and didn't find anything, but apologies if it has been. At a 6max table, what size(s) do you use to open? I have heard that it is better to use smaller sizings in earlier positions, larger in later. Watching higher stakes games, 500z on PS for example, this does indeed seem to be the trend. What effects do various opening sizings have?
It is not immediately clear what size(s) should be used, or why we should even raise in the first place. Typically people discuss stealing the blinds, but I don't think this is the 'full story'. I don't advocate limping, but I have yet to see concrete evidence that it is -EV 😛😀

Lots of reasons why limping is awful.Vulpix said:
Sizing should always be a function of position relative to button and stack depth.
Earlier position = larger sizing.
Deeper stack = larger sizing.
Personally on tougher tables I 3.5x in ep, 3x in mp, and 2.5x button.
