Sounds like a personal problem. Go back and read the whole thing, it is worth it and 'mix up your play' is a gross over simplification.

At your suggestion, I read the 2nd half of his post. My copies of TOP and 7CSFAP mysteriously fell off my bookshelf as I was reading it. Suggesting that you should raise in late position with Aces into 7 callers because you're only "putting 13% of the money in the pot" demonstrates a fundamental lack of understanding of the difference between pot odds and implied odds.

Surely I'm not the only one who recognizes how asinine that is. In fact, see pg. 32-33 of 7CSFAP, starting at the 4th full paragraph, for the correct play in this situation.
