Theory of Leverage

[Number27]

This strategy is fine at a table full of bad nits.

Edit: What I mean is that it's fine against most tournament tables because that's what you'll be facing. This strategy is very exploitable at most ring games. The most obvious counter being to call/call/raise all-in with a wide range of hands including draws/sets/air.

Basically the idea is to raise your marginal and good hands the same size to three times the big blind.

you should be doing that anyways....if you are preflop raising big pairs to 5 and connected garbage to 3.5, every time, you might as well just play your hand open....it doesnt take a genius to adjust accordingly and take the pots away from you at will....

We can play small ball poker i take some pots they take some pots but eventually im going to stack someone more times then they stack me. So we can even out on the small ball but i have control and waiting for someone to bluff off there hand when i really do have a good hand. Thats were most of my profit has been . anyways thats been my experience in the micros. Im sure its different from 100 NL up.
