Default Re: Anyone else feel guilty taking loose passive\'s money?

There's no doubt about it: to be a winning player at cash games, it is necessary to be a predator. Loose-passive players are our prey. They are what keep the games going.

If you can't come to terms with being a predator, then don't play cash games. Stick to tournaments.

Some people come to terms with being a predator through denial or something like it. ("I'm not taking their money; they are giving it to me!") Others simply ignore the prickings of their consciences.

Personally, I believe that the very best hunters have empathy and understanding for those whom they hunt.
