Default Hello,MRB! I would tend to agree....

with U about being more aggressive in an upper middle-limit or higher stakes game.
However,I disagree with U about showing aggression MOST of the time in a small stakes game with marginal hands.
Playing this way with the "little kids" is an excellent way to go home broke. Save MOST of these aggressive plays on your marginal hand when U play with the "big kids".
In poker,one is usually struggling to win the antes.
If there is NO ante or very little ante,I see no reason to "struggle".
In the bigger games with the "bigger kids",U have a nice size ante in which to struggle. Hence,being aggressive with MOST of your marginal hands IS correct since playing this way will improve your chances enough so that U might become a "money favorite".
Bob Ciaffone"the coach",addressed this issue of aggressiveness with marginal hands and under what condition(s) it should be applied.

Happy pokering,MRB!
