You're in a game with more than one tough players or the dynamic is spazzy (maye consider it loose aggressive) with a lot of preflop raising and three-bets. Would you recommend leaving either or in particular in loose game, stay because the pots get big and that's how you make money? <font color="blue"> All games at 100/200 and above can be described this way, and sometimes they are tight and aggressive, you make money in tougher games by playing better than your opponents after the flop. In a micro stakes game you just have to play better starting hands, eventually everyone figures that out and then the real poker begins. </font>

Sorry that this question is a little bit vague, but what does it really mean to "play better than your opponents postflop"? Is there some sort of compact answer as to what that entails?

For the most part, it just means hand reading. Like Sklansky's Fundamental Theorem of Poker says, how would you play the hand if you knew what they held? In practice, it means getting max value when you have the best hand, not getting bluffed, bluffing often enough that you win a bit more than you deserve, as well as metagame things like not tilting which will cause you to lose the preflop battle.

DD,

What do you think about DollNoodle?

When you talk about game selection what are you looking at?

I know you mentioned it earlier but specifically do you examine the seating before you sit at a table to check there is a good position available?

How does live game selection work w/ the more limited availability?

Firstly, congradulations on your success.

How many tables did you play when you started to seriously move up limits?

This is DavidC, for what it's worth, and I play 2/4 -&gt; 5/10 now, and NL as high a 5/5 but generally more like 0.25/0.5.

I'm beginning to think that the difference between winning and losing players is actually quite small, both preflop and post-flop, when you start to look at the actual cost and frequency of errors that are made at the table.

Do you agree or disagree with that?

I'm no DeathDonkey but I can't imagine he agrees with this, even though it's worded in subjective terms ("quite small").

Why have you stuck with LHE rather than NLHE?

Your thesis is that good players make fewer mistakes but they're more costly, making the net the same as a bad player that makes many mistakes but they aren't as costly? Have you gone from HitNRunPoster to TrollPoster?

Deathdonkey,

Another question: Do you use keepass (or other password remembering software) to keep track of your passwords for each online poker site or do you just have the software on your computer remember it?

Thanks,
Buzz
