Does anyone intentionally play bad at a table to project a "fishy" table image? I do vary my play somewhat, but I usually play tight aggressive. Sometimes, early in the game, I will intentionally play a hand horribly wrong, just so everyone can see "how bad I really am."
Last night, I intentionally called someone down with bottom pair and caught a runner-runner nut flush. I didn't have the pot odds to call, but I did anyways. I wanted everyone to think that I would call/raise on marginal hands.
Well my deception worked. This guy goes on a rants about how internet poker rewards bad play and that I should keep chasing. I was laughing out loud, but he was steaming. Mission accomplished.
Does anyone give up a little money early in the night in order to project an image that may win you more money later on?
