I have on more than one occasion played super tight in the Daily Dollar on Full Tilt either from being completely card dead or because other players wanted to push all in every hand. I have cashed on more than one occasion doing this also. Out of curiosity i glanced at my stats during two of these tournaments and noticed that I cashed playing about 12% of my
hands and folding the rest.
Also it seemed that the few times I was in a hand the pot was rather large and I usually won it making easier for me to make it to the money. So I must agree that a lot of times tight is right. On the other hand don't forget to switch gears at times and play a little more loose as the game warrants.
