do you play ABC / Textbook Poker or do you have your own style ?

[Baldy86]

me for example i am pretty loose and will play many hands and will also call in spots where "you shouldnt" especially out of position . i developed my own style and am pretty happy with it

When I first started playing poker, I strictly followed the instructions in Dan Harrington's book on tournament poker. Over time, based on my experience, the limits played, the known information about the players, I began to adapt my playing style to the above factors.

Depends, I like to mix both style according to my stack and if I´m playing tourney or ring.

My opinion is that each of us should develop a certain style of play

If you play by the book everyone knows your plays! At least the ones that read the book!

If I have my own style, then I wish to eradicate it. I strive to play in the 'cleanest', most accurate way possible.

There is no formula to play poker, there are rules, so that you, in the long run, will be profitable. Now if you don't follow these rules and you have a looser style of play and manage to be profitable, then continue with your style and be happy.

If I spot ABC players I label them fish, easy to read.

Have to be able to mix it up. Nothing wrong with a game plan, as long as there is a backup.

There is nothing wrong with ABC poker but it is important to adapt your style to certain situations and players.

I guess all players travel through phases....between tight and loose...

 

[MishkaZL]

I think I also have my own style. My style is based on the fact that I just don't play with junk, and I always try to stay patient.

 

[Savantino]

yes, everbody has its own style, even if you play abc as i see it

I play textbook poker combined with my own (several) style(s) aswell as (NOT) following poker ABC so yeah.
