Being a nit at low-stakes PLO: a shame?

[donkeykong2]

i dont think you necessarily have to be a nit to succeed at low-stakes plo. occasionally you will get at a total nit table you can run over if you are a bit observant and bet the right flops. i generally play very aggressive preflop and on the flop and more tight on the turn/river because people then think they can trap me there. usually you dont get raised, rather called very often which makes it very profitable to play your draws aggro.
its also nice that on some nit-tables you can basicly play from the blinds for free because no one raises preflop.
this is my experience at pokerroom, maybe on other sites the play is different.

We all have styles, and styles affect how our opponents perceive us, but ultimately, poker is about decisions.

I think you mean loose, not tight. At least, I personally consider playing 5532 single-suited UTG or 9932 with three hearts in early position as loose.

I just wanted to say that while playing a little on the nitty side is fine in general at low stakes, you are underplaying the underfull a little bit. Against opponents who treat trips like the nuts (90% of the players you'll find at low stakes), your edge is more sizeable than you think. Against one opponent, you'll be up against 5 outs almost as often as 9 (since they don't pay any attention to whether they have a pair in their hand) and against two opponents, you'll find that they're sharing outs a lot. "Shove and pray" is definitely the way to play that hand against unsophisticated opponents with reasonably shallow stacks.
