Can we just get preflop out of the way? part I

dj,

I like your thoughts 1 on 2.

with regards to 3, you're probably in the exploitably predictable range, though the degree to which you actually end up getting exploited may be debatable.

check this thread out
also this one.

Nice links, especially the 4bet shoving one. The site I play on doesn't have that much light 3betting so I think adopting something like that would be bad at the moment.

I agree about becoming predictable, against an unknown though I will give them credit until I've got at least some kind of read. Against regs who I know view me as tight/nitty I will sometimes get frisky...

djshawk, nice one, I wish I grow some cojones one day to play like that...but yes, I had a shot at 50NL and am back to my comfort zone at 25NL and it is coming clearer and clearer you need to mix it up PF for sure. Keep them guessing and try to shove the idea behind the Fundamental Theory to them every now and again.
