    I know everyone has their own approach to this, so... i'm going to be nosey and ask, How do you pick the table you're going to play?

    When i play cash i usually play super rock tight nittish, set mining and playing big pairs only for the most part. Sooooooo when i choose tables i just go by the ones with the highest # of players per flop, and the highest average pot size because the higher those two numbers are usually means the looser the players are.

    <SPAN>Table selection is something that I have been really trying to focus on lately.<SPAN> </SPAN>There are two things that I do every time I play.<SPAN>
    </SPAN>
    I open my notepad list titled “fish” and search every player to see if they are playing<SPAN> </SPAN>I have it automated with a AHK so it is very simple to see if any or all players are sitting down.<SPAN> </SPAN>My list consists of players I know are really bad and players that over 200 hands have a VPIP great than 50%.<SPAN>
    </SPAN>
    If no on is playing from this list, I will look at tables that have a % flops seen equal or greater than 40%.<SPAN> </SPAN>I will make sure that most of the players a have a full buy in before sitting down with them.<SPAN> </SPAN>If you Google “table selection” there are a lot of great articles.<SPAN> </SPAN>If I recall, Whitelime wrote a good one.</SPAN>
