Default Re: Adjusting from super LAG play against specific opponents (long)

Well, you seem to know you are playing badly postflop and have some sense of what you are doing wrong. You need to learn when to be aggressive, when to trap, when to call, and when to fold and then have the discipline to follow through on what you know is the right play.

If you are playing calling stations, you should never bluff or try to "push them off a hand". The only thing you will accomplish by bluffing them is transferring your chips to their pile.

Sounds like you have your ego mixed up in being "super LAG postflop" and this is preventing your intellect from guiding you to the correct decisions.

You should try to take just as much satisfaction from folding at the right time as you do from being aggressive at the right time. Both skills are important, and if you can only do one, you are only (at best) half the player you could be.
