can I make money playing supertight?
Can I make money playing 2/4 to 5/10 Limit online at full tables only playing the top 5% of hands dealt such as AA,KK,QQ, JJ, AK suited and offsuit and A,Q suited? If I only played these hands (raising with them preflop) and only continued if I hit a piece of the flop could I average 1/2 to 1 BB per hour? How about if I were playing live?

[/ QUOTE ] It depends on whether your opponents are idiots are not. (I do not mean this to be rude; they may well be idiots.) In the online games you mention, you would surely lose (albeit quite slowly). Live? Who knows. Depends on the game, but I can think of little more boring to do than play that way live. Having said that, posts like this go over very poorly here. If you want to learn to play, fine. If you want a robot-like strategy, search elsewhere. |

no, the games aren't nearly good enough for this to work.

I think it would somewhat work live 8/16 and below, but not online.

Didn't mean it to be robotic although I can see how it is. Just that I play too many hands now and looking for a more disciplined way to play limit poker. If I was going to restrict myself to certain hands preflop for tight low limit poker any suggestions?
thanks. |

Re: can I make money playing supertight?
don't try it live. I have a fairly nice range of hands I open with, raise, etc, and in live I've gone card dead for 4-5 hours waiting for any decent hand. If I waited for Jacks and better, I would've been card dead in many sessions for 12 full hours. You simply don't get enough hands.

change gears often. Only tight is not good!

[/ QUOTE ] Yeah, you might be able to get away with a preflop hand chart at 2/4 (not so sure about 3/6 and 5/10 online), even though you'll still be a little overly tight, as long as it's not Phil Hellmuth's chart you're using. |
