Re: Questions on getting Respect / Fear at a table
[ QUOTE ]
Hi guys, I'm searching for some thoughts on how to establish a solid table image, mainly in a single table tournament setting.
Is there a better approach to establishing a better image?
Any pointers on this subject would be appreciated, thanks guys!

For on-line play, don't waste your time trying to establish an image. From my experience, no one really pays much attention to other players' image on-line. Just play your game. With a few exceptions, other players will be playing their style regardless of what image you create, intentionally or otherwise. The one clear exception would be when you are short-handed (down to 4 or less) at a SNG. Even then, if another player is multi-tabling then he's not paying much (if any) attention to your style of play.
Live, much different answer. Nothing gains respect more than solid play and building a big mountain of chips. Especially at live NL play.
