That doesn't mean they're good at all, it's easier to get a high win rate at these tables. I look around the room to see if the reg-calling stations are playing, I don't know why you think it's more difficult.

I agree, although I don't think anyone plays a certain style all the time. I was a tight-passive when I started and now can 3bet steal, the cards really don't matter sometimes when you know the 3bet is taking it down.

I feel like you're contradicting yourself. Why are you going to gather tons of information and know a range exactly, just to ignore it and apply pressure? The more information you know, the less blind pressure should ever be applied. Betting when you know you'll take it isn't aggression, it's making the right play that's going to win the hand. "Putting your opponent to a decision for all his chips" was getting old about 10 years ago.

Again, I don't what you're trying to say. If you just want to be the most aggressive guy at the table, go ahead, I think it's still profitable, but it doesn't make use of information obtained.
So I don't totally know what you're point was. Sometimes you want to have the perfect information to put into the stove. Other times you want to be KGB raising that first hand of the HU match vs Damon. But those are my thoughts.
