If you ask me, a mixture of TAG and LAG playing tends to work best. Both are aggressive styles, so they both have that much in common. How you shift between the two depends on your image, your opponents, and of course your hands.
That’s actually better way of playing. You’re right. Nobody can read you then. I go to table with minimum buy-in, play like rock since I have to be conservative and win a lot. Once I win a lot, people will think I’m a rock. Then, I pretend like calling station and call few hands for draws. People will think putting up bets will make me fold. Then when I get monster hand, I slow-play them while they think i’m a calling station. Once I win a lot, I switch back and forth between styles.
If you watch special features in Rounders, Chris Ferguson talks about styles of playing and says all styles work. Chris Ferguson uses Phil Ivey as an example of loose-aggressive player who wins millions. He can lose a lot very quickly but win a lot very quickly whereas there are conservative tight rock players like Howard Lederer who won’t lose a lot but can’t win a lot either but in a long-run, both players win more than they lose.
I know. Phil Ivey is master of the game. His style is very unpredictable. I placed him under loose-aggressive bcz he plays with many weird hands and bluffs a LOT and is very aggressive. Phil is in his own level.
hey mate. you are talking about phil ivey. not just a random “loose and very aggressive” player. he is a master of the game.
i play all of it so people cant read what u doing. like, bluff alout so people think your a bluffer and thin they go all in but im not bluffing this time lol. thin change it up stop bluffing. people will go crazy trying to read you. you can make more money this way.
For me, I play like rock but once I win enough, or won decent amount, I start doing what this video describes as “winner”. But this doesn’t guarantee anything. I’ve seen people like Phil Ivey who is loose and very aggressive and he wins in a long run than losing. Not only Phil Ivey but people like Stu Ungar, and other aggressive players with junk cards. They win MILLIONS. Then there are people like Gavin Smith, Daniel Negreanu, etc who usually calls or checks to see potential sets.
If I win a lot, I limp in with junk hands too because of implied odds. For example, if it only costs minimum blind to see the flop, i’m in dealer button position, and I have 2 7 and I have so much money, I would limp in with 2 7. If I do hit something really good with 2 7, I can make lot more off it.
I’m a rock myself and I win lot more than I lose. But this video only works if you have won enough and you keep playing. For example, A 8. If I only have 20 bucks and everyone has lot more than me, I fold it pre-flop, but if I have nearly 80-100 bucks in that table bcz i won a lot, then I would call or raise, kick some people off, and play as best as possible.
I think I am more of a rock because I hate taking risks. Some of the people I play at casinos seem to try looking big by bluffing alot, but I find a way to screw them over and win a good amount of money.
hey 007 your a cyber tap
still…very nice…informative vids…….
“The Winner” is just wrong. This is an oversimplification
