As a new player, you may give him a few hands early on due to his aggressive betting. Then he leaves. And why not? He can only get away with those continual aggressive moves for just a short time before anyone catches on. But by then he moves on. Works the same in big MTT freerolls too, you play uber aggressive and get folks to lay down early but then your table breaks up and you do the same at the next table. I've seen it done all too often. But these days, many players are often doing the same thing at the same time and it all becomes a race. Not the way I want to play poker, but if that player has a chance to scope out a table first, then he picks one that looks fairly tight and can get away with it.<BR/><BR/>Makes sense, after the UIGEA ordeal that cut off funding options. People are playing more tight these days - one way to counteract is to play uber maniac-like with Hit n Run tactics. Bound to work a fair percentage of the time at tight tables, but as fads evolve, players will watch for that.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04144288142060736290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9912545.post-19019006922867418182007-03-12T11:48:00.000-05:002007-03-12T11:48:00.000-05:00Thanks!

The blogger FellKnight has also written about it. A search on 2+2 or RGP should yield a few interesting threads.Mr Subliminalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03695144984530658902noreply@blogger.com
