Right on Russ.

Regarding the Poker Channel, are they showing edited versions of every show or just selected shows each week?

In my mind... passive is not betting good hands when you hit... and weak is getting pushed off of good hands or good draws when you have the odds. So someone can be weak, passive, or both weak and passive.

Thats a great point, But I have always thought it was the other way around?

If you think about it, someone who is passive does not take action. They tend to sit back and wait—or check.

Someone who is weak can not sustain (or hold up to the) pressure of a bet. Thus they frequently can be bet off the best hand.

tonight shows a great example of someone playing at a higher level than the rest of the table. Mo looks like a genius against this table. Has anyone reraised or bet into Mo?
Calling=death. you've got to push back a few times to shut that bluffing down.
