is a weak-tight personality good for No Limit?

[barongreenback]

On this forum terms like weak-tight, rock, lag etc. are all used emotively and this must hinder a rational analysis of playing styles.

I sure that understanding the effects of different styles on yourself and others is a key question determining long term success which the majority of posters (inc. myself) have not experienced. I'm not using 'long term' in its usual 50k hands/100k hands/whatever defeats variance, sense. In the true long term, small changes in win rate may not be the main factor. Consider the potential damage of overconfidence and boredom caused by winning consistently for 5 or 10 years.

I imagine that many loooonng term winners have seen players 'better' than themselves come and go.
