    Default LAG's in Shorthanded NL

    I recently played a NL ring home game with some of my friends. After a short amount of time, there were five of us left. The person on my left suddenly became a maniac. And the person two to my right is very loose aggressive to begin with. How do I play against these players in NL shorthanded? How am I going to get a hand often enough so that the blinds don't eat me alive? They are near impossible to read, they bet indiscriminately.

    Use the PASAG method. Pick a spot and go! You're probably gonna have to play an AQ for all your chips if the blinds are moving up. Vs these players hands like AQ/AJ/99 are a favorite even when called so just get the money in there ^^

    I think so too.... but he said ring.....

    SO If its ring.... RELOAD, and if you dont have any money to reload, you guys need to talk about lowering the limits a touch.

    If its a tourny. Pick a spot with your marginally big hands+ and end it PF if they raise. If you got a stack, try to see some cheap flops (if you can) with "stacker" hands. shit like TJs and such, where if you hit, you'll stack them. And I won't link to my own post again.
