I try to not get into pots that I'll have to give up on turn or river. This means tight play oop both preflop and on the flop. Simply avoid weak hands with few outs. Give up early. I also tend to check call hands that I want to play but not for my entire stack, like tpwk and let him bluff.

Me too. I make lots of super-thin value bets, so these players catch me fairly frequently for medium-sized pots (and lose a lot of medium sized pots if they're deciding to call down *too* loosely), but I think most of the really big ones get pushed my way.

"Waiting for a hand" only works if you actually catch a good one, and if your opponent doesn't catch better at the same time, and if you play ultra-tight, you're basically giving them a freeroll the times you do have a playable hand.
