Of course. My first reaction was that you play much better than you post. Is that good or bad?

I guess it depends, but it could be worse. I don't try and preserve or project an image of skill in posts (not saying you do, but I'm sure some do). I post for 3 reasons:

1) I'm bored, or 'feel like it'. (category 1 posts end up in general, oot, internet, short useless responses in strat forums...)
2) I feel I have an uncommon and nontrivial perspective on a topic that has not been voiced.
3) There's a good chance my current opinion is wrong.
4) I'm drunk or high. (This is my excuse for anytime I've come across as ridiculous, an [censored], or a ridiculous [censored]).

I hardly ever post hands that I know I played well.

It's taken me a while to accept, but I am a good player, and parts of my game are quite different from the norm here ( I am overaggressive, and get to SD far more often than a more standard TAG with my aggression stats would).

At 5/10 and 10/20 my overaggressive stylings cleaned up, but higher stakes I play more passively, as there are far more players capable of targeting exploitable strategies. ~2.5 AF as opposed to 3.5.
