I've read this entire thread and watched bart's response. Like others in this thread, I'll probably get the book. I always like 2+2 books. I have read plenty of poker books and watched poker videos that give bad advice.
I think a poster in this thread made a really good point about poker videos versus poker books. In a video, I think you can set the table to understand the context a little better in a video versus black and white text. Poker content for the past 10-15 years has been audio and visual, which allows the presenter to explain the context a bit better than in a forum or in a book.
I think I understand the scenario and context mason and david are trying to convey although I probably wouldn't use some of these tactics personally.
The last few times I've played 1/3, my strategy has literally been push/fold.
I was killing time before a show in Vegas a few weeks ago and stumbled into a 1/3 game.
15 minutes in, I enter my first pot: "All in for $200"
Just a cold shove.
For some reason, low limit players automatically think "He would NEVER do that with AA" and I get looked up by AJ and 10 10? I show down aces, stick around for about 15 minutes, rack up and go to the show.
Obviously, not all low limit games are like this... but sometimes you don't even need to help them give you their money. Some people just don't have a fold button... and if they do have fold button, they think you're an idiot for just random jamming which may or may not be true.
