[ QUOTE ] However, if a full ring game is playing extremly loose postflop, a tight image wont allow you to take down more pots than a loose image, so getting people to give you excess action is more important. [/ QUOTE ] No. You might get free cards when you raise. Your bets may not be raised when they should be. Your opponents may check to you when they should bet. They may play more straight forward against you than they might someone else. And so on. [/ QUOTE ] I haven't read the book or this thread, and I don't play much poker, but I'm full of opinions and here's one: Mason, your idea of high limit poker is outdated. You expect to make most of your money from moves and otherwise break even, when today's players expect to tread water with moves and get paid off with real hands. |

Re: Review, Advanced Limit Holdem Strategy (Tanenbaum)
Reality is that short-handed poker is so subtle, that unless you are experienced at it, you would not understand what is going on if you were watching, and even then it may be hard to see the game.
It is hardly possible to gain insight, or explain your entire strategy, in one general thread. I think Mason created a good argument. |

Hi. One quick point: ALHS does not deal in any way with shorthanded poker.

The whole passage was deliberate, Dave. You might as well bold everything I say.
