Water Out of Fish

In the poker world, the term fish is common. You are typically looking around the table measuring your opponents for weaknesses and tells you can use for later chip extraction. So what do you do when you look around and all you see are solid experienced players. To complicate matters, you are playing a variety of games that aren't your strongest. This is the situation I found myself in last night at CC's .
The lineup: CC , Kuro , Sham, Transfish, Weak , and myself.
The good news for me: I have played with everyone at the table more than once so I'm a little familiar with how they play.
The bad news for me: I have played with everyone at the table more than once so I'm a little familiar with the fact that they are all solid players.
I had made a formidable game plan to play differently tonight to throw everyone off-balance. I feel I have a somewhat tight image and I definitely don't play a super-aggressive game as far as any of these fine folks know so I will fire out some good bluffs and get them frustrated enough to start calling me about the time I wake up with some real hands..........at least that was my thought. The mixed games put that thought quickly to rest as I could in no way get comfortable with bluffing very often at this table so I settled in to a somewhat tight game with the exception of seeing a lot of cheap flops as often happens at a friendly home game.
I won some decent pots and lost some hands I stayed in way past when my cards and my reads said were wise, but I had a great time. I did lose one huge pot to CC when he chased a flush and caught it on the river to cause me to have to re-buy, but I think he had at least 25-35% odds to hit his outs so it wasn't a horrible call on his part. Aside from that one hand, it was about a break-even night.
Thanks CC for having all of us over for a game. I had a great time and you have without a doubt the nicest table outside of a casino that I have ever played on!!

I leave tomorrow for a week. Hopefully when I return I will have some hands from AC to discuss.

Good luck at the tables this week everyone.
