Default Re: Is It Possible To Win A Tight Hold \'em Game, Theoretically?

I have had no trouble beating the Cryptologic full $1-$2 game, which some call tight.

Example:
MP1 posts. 3 folds, check, two folds, I raise in the CO with 98o, 4 folds. I net $2.50 = 1.25 BB.

Sometimes a maniac will win 6+ pots in a row, since the non-observant multitablers all give him credit for a hand when he calls on the flop and bets or raises the turn, even though he limps with almost every hand, never folds on the flop, and bets when checked to.

Playing tightly preflop is not the same thing as playing well on all 4 streets.
