Default Re: Am I Playing Too Tight?

You have to study if you're going to learn with any speed or efficiency. There's no simple answer to how to play what when. As you add more hands to you game, you add more decisions and you have to learn tools to help you make those decisions. Even after you learn the material, you have to use it correctly, under pressure.

Alternatively, you could start playing a wider variety of hands and see what works. But there's no reason to reinvent the wheel: I'd start with the forum anthology, and keep reading posts. Harrington is great because he distills a lot of information and puts it in one relatively well organized place. You'll have to dig around in the forum to pick up the same ideas, and it will take more time.

Did I tell you to get Harrington?
