Default Re: Tight and aggressive preflop is not enough

Learn that raising light preflop feels naughty at first but vastly increases your chances of taking the pot down with a flop or turn bet.

A problem I have run into with this playing style is that after the first time I am called by a pair of 5s and everyone sees I have been betting with K- or A-high on every street, this kind of flop and turn aggression loses its teeth. I raise PF with KJs, and hit a flop of T63, the guy with A6o check-calls the flop and turn, the river checks through, and now I'm the guy who bet with king-high the whole hand. No more taking pots down on the turn.

What do you do in this situation -- change tables?
