It's come to attention I wrote this post badly and it appears I am recommending playing some weak cards in the early levels. For example...

[ QUOTE ]
Call reasonable bets that don't give you a bad feeling, you'll be surprised how often you playing K-10+, Q-10+, and even J-10+.

[/ QUOTE ]

There is a type. "you" should have been " you're ". I did not mean to write that you should play (or call) with these cards in early levels. I hoped to convey that when you have A-J+, you will be facing cards like K-10+, Q-10+, and even J-10+ often enough that getting in with your AJ+ hands is profitable.

Also, when I said this...

[ QUOTE ]
Also, at the $5's, 22-77 are raising hands so your going to get a lot more coin-flips even at the early levels.

[/ QUOTE ]

I meant to convey that people call big bets with these early, so even when you get yourself into trouble, you're going to find yourself with coin flips way more often, which helps your long-run performance.

Moving past that, I personally am not afraid to play K-10 in LP when the table seems weak coming to me. I am confident enough in my post-flop play (at least at the $5 through $20 levels) that I will take a stab at it and I have position. I think I am making chips in the long run on this, so that's just my personal philosophy.
