Disagree with Ciafonne on seat position???
Ciafonne calls the seat to the immediate left of the LAG as the "Death Seat".
http://www.pokerpages.com/articles/a...ciaffone01.htm I understand his reasoning, but I still completely disagree, preferring the regular concept of left of the LAG, and right of tight (preferrably passive), when possible. Reason 1: LAG will loosen up the entire table, so being to the right will give you better position on the field. I don't see this as much as I would like. Instead, I still see only 1 or 2 callers. And even if there were more, I would move an extra seat or two to the left if I was concerned with position on the field (I play 6 max). This would still keep me to the left of the LAG and some position on the field. Reason 2: Position on someone who bets a lot is not as important as position on someone less predictable. In other words, someone who doesn't bet as much. I keep count of solid tricky players, and because of my tight aggressive play, we rarely play hands against each other, yet I play regularly against the LAG. Again, not an advantage. Reason 3: Tough poker decisions with marginal hands against a large field. I'm not looking to be in that situation very often. But I am looking to be in position, heads up, against the LAG in many hands. Does anyone agree with Ciaffone here? |
