I am risk averse.
I never bluff.
I only value bet.
It makes me easy prey to anybody who picks up on my behaviour since they can kick me out of pot on a drawing or modest hand easily by making big raises.
But I rarely meet the same players so 90% of the time I am playing against people who don't know my weakness.
However my style does not seem to actually cost me anything. I win consistently just by waiting for good cards and betting proportionally based only on EV.
I am quick at calculating probabilities for my outs, draws etc. and measuring them against pot odds and I can often accurately put other players on a hand once I have watched them betting a few hands.
But I cannot bring myself to bluff which is a valuable part of the game.
So am I good poker player or a bad poker player?
