fwiw, this is just my opinion and i make no claim that what i say is completely factual...
at micros, say... .25/.50 and below, you can be a winner playing that style because the games are full of poor players.
at 1/2, using that style might be passing up on a lot of situations where it would be profitable to vpip higher. however, one shouldn't just aim to start playing 30/20+ cold turkey or something.. you know?
and switching to a more loose style pre-flop does not equate to more winnings post-flop. if you start playing 30/20 pre, and then fit/fold it up post, you are just asking to be punished. if you play 30/20 pre, and then start going ape **** post-flop, you're also asking to be punished.
playing more hands means you potentially place yourself in more marginal situations...so...play on/after the flop is just as, if not more, important than pre.
if you want a good example of a nit gone lag, look at merry. early on @2p2, she was a rock that eeked out a better than BE win rate over a large sample. look for some of her posts in the stats thread (micros stats thread v1.0 and SSSH stats thread). then look at the responses to her posts. she crushes poker btw.
