Default Re: Hit and Run vs. Taking Command vs. Trapping

Building a stack with this method is fine, but if you find yourself losing your hard earned chips towards the later parts of your sessions, you should consider tightening your raising standards after an hour or so to:

1.) suited connectors...no offsuit cards below T

2.) pocket pairs

3.) nothing but premium hands before late middle position

You will find that you are still raising a lot of hands, but you will be able to see flops that will REALLY hit you when they hit you, and you will have position throughout, which makes stealing a pot much much easier

Pay attention to what your opponents are doing as well...If you have stolen from someone countless times, be careful...when he finally plays back at you, he'll have a hand...
