Time For a Strategy Change

A lot of tables are beginning to become four- and five-handed. As a result, players are beginning to loosen up their game. Players will start to raise and call with a wider range of hands than they would earlier, in an attempt to try to chip up and take down their table. Betting levels are still relatively small in relation to the amount of chips left, so this may still take a while.
