Default I am a winning player because....

I purposely left out "Both" since I want to see what you would categorize as your biggest strength.

FWIW i'm a value-bet machine, and i maximize my wins against LPs and LAGs equally, in different ways. I've only recently put serious focus into minimizing my losses, but it has improved my game significantly IMO.

Because I am disciplined enough to not do dumb $h1t like cold calling raises with AQo against a tight player and limping in UTG with KJo.

I should add, that's not a shot at 'everyone else'. the way that should read is 'ONLY because everyone around me sucks really really bad'

Both.

This can't be an "either/or" kind of thing.

Which attribute adds more value though?

I voted for minimize losses because it seems there are far more opportunities to lose than win.
