I really hate the advice to loosen up in looser games. I may be bias because I am still a low limit player, but you even see this at 10/20-20/40NL on Live at the Bike. Corporation Mike makes the game loosen up and all of a sudden good players are playing hands they shouldnt. I feel strongly about playing really snug, maybe even a short stack in loose games because people are going to be making a lot of big mistakes against you (i.e. calling preflop without getting proper implied odds, calling pre and post flop with dominated hands, calling a tight players bets too much). Again I play 1/2NL in the casino and micro limits online so I probably have a bias towards the strategy that works for me, but loosening up seems to play into LAG players game. Please le me know your thoughts on this because I don't want to have just one view on how to play the game, but this does not seem like a piece of advice that goes with the rest of the themes in this book.
