Starting Strategy

Caught? How? OP says he heard it in an interview.

I apologize, I thought he was writing down HIS thoughts after hearing the interview. I apologize for beign a @#%&

I like the concept for various reasons. Firstly, if I am going out of a tournament I would prefer it to be when I have invested ten minutes of my life, rather than hours. Secondly, if everyone at the table is convinced that I am a loose player, I am more likely to cash in when I have monster hands.

Sadly I don't have enough confidence in my poker abilities (yet) to have actually put it into practice, but I am going to try it out in a few freerolls first and see what happens.

My earlier post wasn't intended to insult the OP, by the way, I was just giving people the opportunity to read the interview in full, should they so desire. Hope that no offence was caused, as that was not my intention!

Whats the guarantee you're going to chip up to 20k against the 5k's playing a looser game...You're going to be similar to any other donk playing at the level and others are tight , you're going to end up loosing your mediocre hands most of the time..its folly i think

There are pros and cons, as always. I have played freerolls where I have come out way to strong first few hands, and it has payed off big time when I have picked up aces, and gotten payed. But you end up l

Sry, just picked up aces, so lost concentration on what I was writing . But you get the general idea, dont get caught up in thinking that one style is always right, cause it never is.

You may build up chips quickly, but you will also lose them quickly...best is to play premium hands, be patient, don't get married.
