Re: Is there really any value to \"mixing up your play\" in these games?
[ QUOTE ]
After giving it some thought I think it is best simply to play your hand optimally every time in these games.

It depends on what you are referring to by "these games". If you mean your typical online low limit table with mostly non-thinking (and ever changing) opponents, then I would say no, you do not need to mix it up that much. If you are at a casino table for a long period of time with observant opponents, or in a home game with the same players week after week, then there is a benefit to mixing it up so long as you don't get too out of line making suboptimal plays for deception purposes. Naturally, HPFAP discusses this.
All the best.
