6 Handed Shallow Stack Strategy

Postby Isaac Mikel » Wed Mar 23, 2011 11:32 am GMT

Home game tourney at the weekend. I've mostly been playing tight in 9 handed ring games.

The only player I know is my brother who is quite a loose player. He'll play pretty much any suited connectors, Ax, Kx. I watched him call an all-in pre-flop with 56s. He flopped a straight, of course. Despite this he is us actually fairly passive.

So, with the shallow stack should I just avoid playing my brother? What are acceptable starting hands for this type of game?

If its shallow wait for good hands and go all in a lot before the river
