If I said I am in fear of a situation, even though, when describing the fear, I may even understand parts or the whole situation of the fear I face. The hard part is admitting, and recognizing the fear; the next step is to stop letting fear dominate my thoughts, emotion. Create new memories that eliminate existing fears, use old memories to create new thoughts from the same information about fear that can be used as a new strength in my game.
Loose aggressive, tight aggressive, one is right; the other is looked upon as a dirty little secret. Fear of being drawn out by LA players? Fear of image being a donk, LA? Fear of what others think of your play?
Why do we play? For respect? Do we play only TA because we fear of what others may think about our play? Do we play for money? Do some play to eliminate fear from their game? Do others play to learn how to beat others? Do we play to have fun or entertainment?
In sports, a person will compete against other likeminded competitors, one stands out away from the crowd and seemingly will do anything within the rules to win. They are revered by their peers as a fierce competitor.
Poker, a player will play tight aggressive, compete for the win, they are revered by their peers as playing the right way, they had a good run. A loose aggressive player will compete for the win, when they win, they may not be revered by their peers, and they may be looked down on by their play. They are not revered as a fierce competitor even though, they played within the rules.
When a player explains their TA strategies, actions, how they play situations, explain their thoughts, actions that encompass their game, their opponent’s game. The same player now can understand LA play in the same way they understand TA play. LA player explains their thoughts actions behind strategies, situations and those of their opponents in the same manner as TA styles, players. The power of observation can allow for using and evolving the player’s abilities at the table in the moment, the experience comes from putting your game in vulnerable spots over and over and analyzing the movements instead of the results.
Could this collaboration create balance of aggression, play, how opponents now think about both TA, LA play? Could these be combined into one style, however, both could be done individually at any time, place or even alternated depending on structure, dynamics of tables, during a MTT tournament? Would this collaboration be for the betterment of their game?
Would this be seen as luck? If a person knows what the other is holding but plays the opposite of the opponent in a random situation, no matter what type of aggression they use LA, TA; are they a luck box when they win? Has any rules been broken? Do players have unwritten rules at the table because of how they view TA actions, actions of donks, LA? Is there a social expectation of entertainment at the table and when the unwritten social contract is broken are they now looked down upon by their peers?
When playing right people call me a luck box, usually they will point to one hand they lose because I was playing the opposite in this one random situation. However, playing TA, LA before this situation, any hands prior to the random situation was not talked about because they only recognized what style was used when the hand was over, and the cards were turned over.
It would be hard to test and measure this situation, then produce empirical facts about why people do not recognize dynamic switches, also the difference of thought, play about different aggressions from image, and style. However; it would take many times talking about honesty to uncover true thoughts about why this frustrates people about donk play, LA players. People do make statements why a person should not play in what they observe as a donk play however; conclusions without facts are just statements with no empirical information.
A counter to this would be an argument of how much money does this crap I am spewing make in an hour, a day? If I am this good why am I not playing for a living instead of posting in a forum? Do you actually think this is a good way to play because it looks like you are just trying to get lucky and this is bad to post? These questions are valid arguments but what motivates me to think about my play to invest time into merging my LA, TA play; with motivations to play LA to instill fear, emotion to test others?
Is poker a game of skill that was cleverly disguised as a game of luck? I have asked this a few times and each time I try to give additional information to flank the question. Would adding more information with the question create deeper thoughts about the question?
