saying stuff like sc's are inherently -ev just isn't right. It's knwoing when to hold em and when to fold em.


Just play every hand so each decision is +EV (or least -EV) (if you know what you're doing you can accept the odd decision as -ev as long as you think it's +ev for the session/long game).

For example when you limp or call a raise with a pp, be reasonably sure you can extract at least about 8 times your bet on average when you hit.

Just think 'if i were in this spot a million times what's the best way to make the most money/lose the least money'.

Edit: and Osprey is on the right path, your cards don't matter with steals in the right table/spot. What is important though is recognising a changed table dynamic when the others finally get tired of your stealing and start playing back. Buying thw pot can get dangerously addictive on a passive table.
