Default Re: A humble question

Being aggressive sometimes lets me win pots because neither my opponent nor me have flopped a hand but my opponent cannot call.

Calling = you need the best hand
Betting = you need the best hand OR opponent needs to think he may not have the best hand.

Two ways to win > one way to win

Most pots in higher stakes games are played heads up, so it becomes much more likely that an opponent has whiffed @ hitting the board.

That is the reason for seemingly "insane" looking aggression.
