Re: A cost of aggression
That sounds like great advice.
I have noticed, any time I get a good string of cards early I always have a good session. Thats because I play them very aggressively - lots of re-raising and betting.
It does intimidate the table, and it makes it really easy to steal pots for quite a while afterwards. Seems after I've jammed 3 or so hands and flipped over big cards, no one will stay in a hand with me. When I raise preflop unless the flop hits them, they'll fold to my flop bet.
This is a really wonderful situation to be in. If they call I know they have something. easy read. also they'll rarely raise me without a BIG hand so its an easy fold when they do.
The when I do get a monster, I limp, string them along, then wham! slam the door on a later street. They jump out of the hand like rats leaving a sinking ship.
I wish I could just get there more often.
