I tried it some, probably like most thinking it'd be an easy way to beat fish. The problem is it depends on your opponents wanting to avoid risky situations. You're banking on stealing lots of blinds and limpers. He gives examples about TT/JJ folding preflop to your pushes.

Put simply, that doesn't happen online. You're 33, AK, whatever, is called with regularity, putting you frequently in 50/50 situations or into a really bad "dominated by overpairs" situations.

People online don't avoid risk, they embrace it, going all in loosely trying to build a decent stack. If they bust out, who cares, they go join the next tourney starting in 3 minutes... God forbid it's a rebuy tourney...I've seen lots of folks simply go all in every hand, rebuying until they hit a hand and double/triple through, after which they play more sane.
