Probably the biggest adjustments I had to make were in adapting to the players across the spectrum from tight/passive to loose/aggressive.

I was really hoping to see a Pooh-Bah post on *this* topic.

After a disgusting number of games, I'm still not convinced I'm very good at recognizing player tendencies, much less exploiting them.

Everybody talks about how you have to pay attention to what your opponent is doing, and exploit their mistakes, but there just really hasn't been that much about specific mistakes, and *how* to exploit them.

There have been a few things here and there, but even a thread that was intended to be devoted completely to this very specific topic ("post common villain mistakes and how to exploit them" or something like that) was strangely devoid of real answers.

Of course, I realize the main reason for that is that it's all insanely situation-specific. It still seems like it ought to be possible to approach from a high level, though.
