Re: Worse hands will fold, better hands will call....

I think you're VASTLY over-rating your opponents.

Just because I chose to illustrate my point with an example against a solid TAG does not mean that the underlying principle is not present against all players. At some point there exists a hand which your opponent will not make mistakes against you. How would you handle QQ or JJ given the action in those hands?
I raise with AK to $14, the player behind me reraises to $40 or something. I call. Flop is Kxx rainbow. I check/call the flop, check/call the turn, check/fold to a push on the river. Yuck. Maybe I played it okay but I feel like my hands are tied. If I show much aggression QQ/JJ/etc are folding. If I don't show aggression then I let my opponent decide exactly how big the pot will be. So neither way do I get my opponents to make any significant mistakes.
