    Default Lots raises with just top pair?

    I was trying to find an open 10 ring .50/1 HE table on Pacific Poker last night. I finally got on a table that had 40%+ seeing the flops, but the betting was crazy. These guys were reraising all the way to the river with just high pair. It didn't happen once, but a bunch of times. When I finally got a hand to play it was reraised twice before it got to me. It wasn't uncommon for the betting to cap preflop as well. Should I even try playing on these tables? Looks like a lot of gambling and not much thought going into bets.

    Play them, but play tighter than you normally woule - especially pre-flop. There's nothing worse than limping with a marginal hand from MP only to have it 3-bet later.
    I'm CDO. It's like OCD, but everying is in order just like it should be.
