Default negreanu\'s latest column (target weak players)

http://www.nj.com/sports/ledger/inde...xml&coll=1

curious about this part of the advice and whether you agree with his general assertion...

Target weaker players

Look to play more hands against the less-skilled players at your table.

If that means stretching your starting hand requirements against them, then that's what you need to do. In fact, you'd be much better off playing a hand like 5c-3c against a weaker player than you would be by playing a hand like A-10 against a top player.

do you agree with this assertion? i think you can question the value of AT in general, but is there really that much of a spread in terms of playing these hands vs. poor/great opponents, and position has alot to with it..... i just don't see the great player being killed by your funky 53s hand, but if the great player makes power plays alot, your AT top pair on the flop looks pretty good (not great or anything though)

i really likes daniel's column... and when i said new column, it's published today in a paper and i'd never seen it before, but i know different papers publish them at different times, so it may not be new.
thanks in advance!!!
