A great read, and some insightful ways to play. You had me chuckle with this;
"Another experiment was to open a wide range of hands out of position and only premium hands in position. Once again, the idea here was to break old habits and experiment with something new. After I lucked out and won several hands with horrible cards, a player lost it, and yelled, “Do you have any idea what you are doing?!” I responded calmly, “Winning?” LOL
Sometimes at my local casino just before the break and the last time to enter the tournament some players with average or lower stacks will go all in blind and I remember the last 3 hands were announced before a break was to be took. A player went all in blind twice and won.. and on the last hand shoved again to win 3 flips on the bounce.. it was fun to witness
