flop a good hand (TP or better) and wait until they are pot-committed. Immediately push. This is my strategy for home games that pwns NL tighties.

Tell them they know all the angles but don't have the balls to take them. Then bring your whole bankroll to the 25/50 game.

If you yourself are one of these grinders, think about how you would beat yourself.

You don't necessarily have to beat certain players, just be focused on beating the game your in. If there were 8 fish at a table and Johnny Chan, I wouldn't spend all my time trying to outmaneuver Johnny Chan. I'd just focus on making money off the fish. If you can't beat the game, wait until you are better prepared to sit in that game, or find a different game.

you need to watch the TV series TILT so that you can learn to "get out of the kiddie-pool and START MAKING SOME MOVES!!"

They call him the Matador for his ability to lure young bulls into the ring and then down them.
