The reason to play $1/$3 is to exploit almost 100% of the time as a hobby.
Oh I agree… I play plo and bigger
I’m just saying being unbalanced is going to open you up to be exploited when everyone knows your limp back raise Strat is only AA-KK.
Tricky players have their plays work a couple times then everyone adjusts.
Or maybe they don’t adjust at these levels and you can make the same bad plays over and over again and no one will catch on.
But if that’s the case do you need to read a book to make these tricky plays?
If anything I would argue to be the trickiest you would want to do the opposite of everything written in every poker book.
Open limp. Flat in sb and co etc etc… just make suboptimal plays and the deception will throw your opponents off.
