do you think they just have excellent hand reading ability and can put themselves in good positions with marginal hands against people with even worse hands?

We have a winner. The problem is, sometimes it's hard to tell who's flat out awful and who is very good (but unconventional). "Tight as Balls" players don't seem to make up a majority of the game's big winners.

I agree. I don't think playing really tight will make you a big winner in this game. I think you have to be very creative to be a big winner. I'm sure you'll still be a winner being tight, but probably not so much as some others. The thing that I have really found playing against these guys is that decpetive starting hands go WAAAY up in value. Starting with even a mediocre high hand that appears to be a low hand seems to be very profitable for these guys.
