hi all ,ive been playing a bit of live poker down my brothers pub for the last couple of  months ,either a friday night or sunday afternoon ,or sometimes both .......they are players i didnt know ,and were kind enough to let me join in for a game .........after a few weeks i realised that my playing style was not gonna work on this table ,and i had to change ........on my table i had a tight player ,an allin merchant ,2 players calling any raise with any 2 cards ,a guy who never raises even with aa pre flop ,and a persistant bluffer .............basically a nightmare table lol ...........obviously you can deal with possibly 2 of the above ,but to have them all sat at the same table is horrendous ..........its taken me a couple of months ,but i won 1st game last week ,there was no way i was giving up till i won one .........its a nightmare to play poker there ,but ive never had so much fun ,friendly banter,horrendous calls ,all in with air on the flop, that actually work out ,turn and river ,so funny...........going back to my question ,how do you deal with a range of different playing styles,all sat on the same table ??????????........ten

Pick one player and play against him. Ignore all the others as much as possible, just focus on that one guy.
Every time, he raises, pop it up. If he folds then get out of the hand - you're playing HIM, not the table.

Play differently against each player. If they are loose play tight, if they are tight play loose. Just look who has to act after you before you do anything.
