agression is good is a quality in poker but no to all time , maybe bluff
bluffing takes aggression. You can't be a passive bluffer.

Sometimes is very important agression... And yes you can learn but you need playing lots of hands to learn in all possition when to be or not agressive.

I think it's a lot easier to be aggressive in poker, rather than being aggressive in real life. So aggression in poker is definitely something you can develop over time.. but yes, if someone's aggressive irl, they're definitely more-likely to play aggressively in their poker game.

Of course does a agressive NON-professional poker player play a bit agressive if he is playing poker. But you have to understand that great poker players can mix up there games, so they are agressive when they need to and passive when they don't.

CONCLUSSION: agression can be learned

Yeah I agree. It can be a learnt skill (and is probably better this way) than aggresive from nature.

True, because those agressive unexperienced players end up losing lots and lots of their stack against an experienced player noticing this.

Absolutely everything can be taught but can it be controlled and bälanced for hours and hours week after week, that takes drive and most cant cut it.

I have a bad tendency to play too conservative than have a bad beat and go full out aggressive and lose a lot of chips... Which is actually pretty similar to my personality haha.

In tournament poker at low limits is aggression suicide.If only at a late stage when the blinds threaten your chips. And in cash games at low limits is aggression the only way to play profitably. That's a paradox

Over time, even the most awaited call can be redundant.I think you need to consider many factors , in addition to all that , this dispersion luck )

I think that aggression in poker is not always connected to the nature of man. The era of tight poker in the past. Now a lot of successful players engage in an aggressive game. Of course a lot of people take their example and imitate. On the whole, you can learn and aggressive game also. Main patience and desire.

Aggression can be directly connected and depends on the person and from the poker game.

i don't think that agression in poker depends on a person character, just two different worlds(poker and real life).

is aggression in poker deliberate, that is, you play so deliberately, for Heightening their stack or for the suppression of the player, and there is the uncontrolled aggression and there is a person's character

aggressive play that's fine but you need to keep a balance so as not to use your aggression against you

when playing aggressive you need to know a few things. who you are raising into (they should be a tight player). What position do you have. generally, you want the later position in a 1v1. also you need to know when they have picked something up. i know you are playing aggressive but you need to know when to fold them or you just end up spewing chips.

aggression in poker in no way depend on the nature of a man.... A man with cautious may be as aggressive as any other player on a poker table... aggressiveness can be definitely learned... it may take a while as it can be learned only through experience

Pocket aces enable a person to play more aggressively than a 7-2. To steal blinds it can be possible. Position is fundamental. I usually play with the cards that I am dealt. Yesterday the second hand at my table on the freeroll, was pocket kk vs pocket aa. Those hands when having pocket kings can be scarring. I felt bad for the person with pocket kings. In essence, I guess aggressiveness in poker can be equal to having a super good hand.

I think one thing doesn't necessarily have to do with the other. And yes, it sure can be learned/developed, just watch some videos of commented tournaments, study and for sure you'll develop your skills and also the aggressiveness in certain moments of the game.
